    My 401K is up 25% year-to-date. Yes, I know we started the year 40% down, but at least we have gained some back.

    How is everyone else doing?

    How is everyone doing over all not just this year? I can log in and select my account balance tab & it tells me current balance & amount invested...simple division shows where I'm at from inception.

    Today I'm only down 10%....the worst I saw was down 48%; so another couple good months like this and I'll be back to even!

    Actually that is true The Obama administration by devaluing the dollar has caused the market to rise.However is it a false market if the dollar rises or another round of bad economic news sets in etc commercial real estate a major bank failure or negative GDP in 4th quarter hello 8500.Don't matter though I can actually make more on the way down.

    So you can also take the blame for the cost of fuel going back up, or is that still Bush's fault?

    Futures in the tank tight now.Dubai may be defaulting on a lot of debt.Asia and Europe were both down last night.If they are down again tonight our open may not be pretty.But its a shortened session and volume has been low Tue and Wen. So might not be that bad.

    I thought that Dubai was "swimming" in oil money.



    The Palm Islands – The Palm Islands, also referred to as The Palm Dubai and The Palms, are the world’s three largest human-made islands, which are built on the coast of the emirate of Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates – UAE. The project is being handled by Al Nakheel Properties (Nakheel Corporation), which will increase Dubai’s shoreline by 120km and create a large number of housing, relaxation, and entertainment areas. The idea was first announced in May 2002 and the two manmade freehold artificial palm tree-shaped resort islands are expected to maintain Dubai’s position as a best tourist destination. The Palm Islands has also been named ‘The Eighth Wonder of the World‘.

    See link, I think the "was" in your sentence was the key word.Oil is at 76 right now and it would be 40 had the dollar not dropped so much.So they are not bringing in what they once were.
