The economy is in a delicate balance right now! Will the democrats, with the control of the Senate and The Congress and now The White House be able to fix the sick economy? The firm stance that democrats have taken in the past will do nothing to help this economy like high taxes, controlled trade, more unions. One thing is certain that regardless of the intention of either party everyone needs to be Pro American Growth without this, our economy doesn’t stand a chance of get back on track! Every decision that will be made in the next four years needs to have a couple questions stamped on it “Is this good for America? Will this grow our country?”. If there are laws passed and money spent without this question being asked, it will make the road to recovery that much longer. Now with the election behind us, it is time for both parties, as well as the American people to get to work and help fix this economy!

Stocks are mixed on fed rate cut after an entail increase the market is falling sharply. If the behavior will continue like it has in the last couple day it will just titter between the positive and the negative.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see the rest of the world match the Feds move to slash rights. China has already cut rates be for the Fed had made their decision. Bernanke has already said that he will use all available tools to battle this crisis.

As business cycles come and go from time to time, they are a much needed element in the free market. Only this time the storm has been bigger and longer than anyone could have imagined. Business cycles are a natural way of sorting through the good companies from bad ones and it is, only the strong and vibrant companies that make it through the peaks and troughs. The American Banks have been an excellent example of what happens when companies cannot survive. They are bought, sold, merged and allowed to die off, if unable to maintain a profitable organization. As the banks have taken the spotlight on this topic, there has been a wave of this activity that is rippling through every business sector in the market. Darwin knew it all along, only the strong survive!
There has been an enormous flight to quality, in the last 6 months in every field from banking to consumer goods to home loans and auto sales. Lendability.com has staked its claim as a beacon of quality in this economic downturn with its clear cut mission statement and its ABLITY to evolve, flex, and shift to meet the rapidly changing demands of our customers. It is for this reason that Lendablity.com along with so many other companies in various sectors from banking to the Auto Sales will come out of the downturn with enormous strength and resilience. As the flight to quality continues it will be a great indicator as to who the quality institutions in any market will be. The companies founded on the “Quick Buck” business model will be all but extinct leaving only quality companies to help bring the US out of this economic decline.

Demand Destruction has hit everyone from the oil market to the retail sector and it has finally hit the niche head-kicking market. With consumer confidence at an all-time low people are watching what they spend their money on! It seems like only yesterday that it was at least 1.00 USD to have someone kick themselves in the head.

As I am a frequent camper, one of the funnier activities while camping by a canyon or cliff is throwing rocks off of the edge and listening for the rock to hit bottom. I cannot help to notice how the Dow Jones has taken a similar path to a rock thrown off a cliff. The only problem is that we have not heard the rock hit the bottom yet. The market over the last week has been testing a bottom and forming support levels. The market has almost given back its entire rally that shocked everyone, except this trader on Monday. They always say the bottom is never easy or pretty! I can tell you that the saying hold true to our situation. Bottoms form when everyone talks about giving up and just decide to buy and hold because they see the value in beat up stocks or they refuse to panic sell and hold their positions.
If we have not hit bottom, we are close the market seemed to find a support level after hitting the 8000 mark. The true test will be seeing what the Dow does through third quarter earnings season especially in the retail sector. The banks will soon be clear of their bad debt through the government’s full support. This should bring a great deal of confidence back into the market. When the confidence comes back be prepared for several large up swings, similar to the one on Monday.Brett Nelson

If there has ever been a story that shares the same symbolism as the US Economy it is this clip. Hit after hit the economy has suffered over the last year, it’s America and America only that could take such blows and still be able to survive. Not only will we survive but we will flourish, as the rest of the world is now coming to the realization of how much trouble they are in i.e. the US dollar position. The greatest part about this clip is when all the countries that are riding in the lead group from Germany to Spain get crush by the (red, white and blue) the colors of the postal service jerseys.
The European banks are far more leveraged then they could have ever guessed. It’s the unity of Wall Street and Main Street and whatever street the politicians resided on, because I certainly know it’s either of those streets that will take us out of trouble. Who would have guessed that figuratively speaking Paulson and Bernanke would make such great cyclists? Then again the sheer thought of Paulson and Bernanke in spandex, brings an uneasy feeling to my stomach similar the smell of a cup of mayo being heated up in the microwave. For the time being Lance will stick to riding and Paulson and Bernanke will stick to the number crunching, and after the bill gets passed look for America to grow to great heights. While the rest of the world is sitting there asking themselves where they went wrong. The government has made a check list, and they are currently working their way down the list.Halt Foreclosures
Keep People in Their homes
Buy assets at the lowest possible price, only to hold them and sell them at a higher price
Keep peoples money safe in the banking system
Change outdated laws that are negatively affecting the Economy (mark-to-market)
Rebuild Confidence in the US Financial system -

Weather you have bought into the hype of this alleged separation of Wall Street and Main Street, let me tell you that we are all connected to Wall Street weather we like it or not. If you still want to continue to believe that they are separate streets than at least understand that we have certainly come to the intersection of the major streets, and it resembles a Texas highway interchange.
If everyone doesn’t understand the importance of loaning money to individuals or companies by now please understand that it is what keeps the country moving “liquidity”. What does this mean for you if you’re an 18 year kid, this means that you and your parents most have impeccable credit in order to secure your student loans. Any and all loan departments are suffering from this crisis. If the banks can’t risk loaning money for people to buy cars, than what happens to the already struggling auto industry, well let me tell to it shrinks ie LAYOFFS. If this crisis is allowed to continue the shock wave will ripple through every industry causing them to fall like dominoes. Until the banks feel confident enough to continue lending money the system will be frozen!
This bill will help free up the system by BUYING NOT BAILING out the banks by buying there severely devalued mortgage assets! The government this time around has added a few more prevision to help the success of the bill like increasing the amount of money the FDIC insures deposits from 100,000 to 250,000 dollars. They have also changed some accounting rules that have been negatively affecting major companies, that is “Mark-to-Market”.
This bill is an attempt to un-freeze the markets, keep people in their homes, and bring confidence back to the markets. Thus creating a bottom in a verity of markets, which will help spur growth and start us in an upward moving trend. It all comes with risk and a price tag, the important thing to remember is that we are BUYING NOT BAILING OUT Wall Street and Main Street.

If the Federal government is going to shoot a bullet that cost 700 billion dollars we certainly can’t afford to miss. Hopefully, the officials that we have elected have made the right decision by not passing a rushed bill through Congress. Thus, allowing needed time to add provisions that will ensure the success of the bill the second time around. I certainly know that the decisions that will be made by American tomorrow will be in the history books forever. It will be how America composes ourselves during these times, that history and the rest of the world will judge us. It’s the determination, strength and resilience of the American people and its leaders at make it the superpower that it is today.
