So, apparently no matter what the Dow does .... It's Obama's fault.

Feds pumping $85 Bil a month into the market surely has nothing to do with it.

If Obama wanted to cut spending and cut taxes - he could have all the credit. Since he doesn't want to do that - shouldn't he get the blame???
Biden's most truthful quote ever came during his first press conference, 03/25/21.
Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!

I see you are bleeding from that gash between your legs again.
QE 1, 2, & 3, record low interest rates and a fed balance sheet that has increased 600%+ over the last 4 1/2 years. You don't think inflation is real, then I can't help you.
BTW it is not Obama's fault, he shares the blame with the Fed and the rest of the ass holes in Washington.

My question is were to place my bets with my 401k. I have quite a bit in an inflation protected bond fund. Not sure treasury bonds are safe these days even if they are inflation protected. Just moved more into international funds today.
I've felt like stocks have been artificially high for a while. Is it time to park it all in a money market fund? I parked it all in mid 2008 and it worked out well. I didn't lose hardly anything in the big crash. Unfortunately I left it parked a little longer than I should have.
I can borrow half of it and make payments with interest to my own account. I've thought about doing that and buying silver again.

Last year was good and I suggest that this year will be as well.

How did the Dow reach 14,000? Who benefited? Who are the losers? Nearly every pension fund in the nation is heavily invested in the market. If the market falls, everyone in our nation who's relying upon a pension will be harmed. Therefore, politicians on both sides of the aisle will stop at nothing to prop up the market, even if the market's actual value is illusory. The market is now the game of the wealthy. The rich are making lots of $$$, and the rest of us are paying for it right now. Inflation resulting from the Fed's printing funny money in order to fund QE's 1, 2, & 3 has forced us to pay more and receive less. And our children and their children will pay the tremendous debts of the QE's. The market, like all stretched bubbles, will burst. Soaring Dow

Liberals can't ever tax enough.

Liberals can't ever tax enough. When I ask them how much is enough, none of them can answer other than mumbling about paying your "fair share". Elections matter - we will all see soon enough!

The DOW at 14K doesn't reflect the state of the economy like it used to. The federal government is involved in many more companies than it used to be either by direct ownership (GM) or billions of subsidies like the alternative energy groups.
Also the DOW is a group of 30 companies that have multi-national status and heavily involved in commerce all over the world.
We'll all see soon enough how healthy the economy is!
