THE BUSH YEARS ARE FINALLY BEHIND US!!!! (Mostly)

A stock rally that sent major stock indexes to new heights on Tuesday was buoyed by more than just holiday spirits, according to the pros.

Santa Claus came early this year by sending both the Dow Jones industrial average and the S&P 500 to new closing highs for a second consecutive day on Tuesday. The Dow closed up 0.4% to 18,024.17, following a previous closing high of 17,959.44 reached on Monday.

The S&P 500, meanwhile, closed up 0.2% to 2082.17, above its closing high of 2078.54. Only the Nasdaq composite of tech stocks broke the mold, trading down 0.3% to close at 4765.42.

While stock swings are easier to come by during a holiday week when volumes are light, economists said Tuesday's historic uptick is no Christmas miracle.

"Sure, liquidity is low toward the end of the year, but the fundamental improvements in the economy support an upward trajectory for the stock market," said Brett Ryan, an economist with Deutsche Bank.

"This is not valuation driven, this is not psychology driven — it's fundamentally driven," added David Darst, senior adviser to Morgan Stanley, of Tuesday's rally.

HEYYYY, we all got our Xmas present some years back when Obama signed that trillion dollar stimulus package, ya know the one where the average person got a 300 dollar tax break

what you spent it all, ALREADY???

ya know the really FUNNY part of that was, they spent 830 billion dollars, there are only 300 million people in the USA, divide 830 billion by 300 million write em all a check for that amount and every man woman an child could have retired
we'd have had to have a MASSIVE immigration influx just to take over all the jobs people retired from, and those retired people could have bought ANY DAM THING THEY WANTED
imagine what THAT would have done to the economy!

yeah I know over the long run there would be monster problems not the least of which being inflation... but it sure sounds good on the surface huh

sorta like that community reinvestment act Clinton signed....

you know the one, the one that spawned the joke that went around the construction trade "can't afford your rent, BUY a house!"

$830B/300M = $2,767 (rounding to the closest dollar). Now, where, oh where, can you retire on that?!?

WOW, either a bunch of malcontents or Bolsheviks here. For many who've been working the past 10-30 years, this is very good news if you've allocated 5-15% away into your 401K account. Anyone with an employee stock purchase plan is also benefiting.

If you are part of a Capitalist economy, you have to find some way to buy into the investor class or you get left behind.

If you are upset about income inequality --- than the constructive response here is a raise on the capital gains tax.

lucy, yourself, FD, DK, just to mention a few, have spewed hatefull things at me more times than I can count, very very very rarely have I responded in kind, but that kinda circles back to that whole TRUTH thing mentioned above...

I admitted my mind jumped to a flawed conclusion, I'll be watching for the time one of the above mentioned ever does that. ohh wait, nooo, you guys are NEVER WRONG are you? wish I was so PERFECT!

neverminding that the "bush years" you are disparagingly referring to were largely a result of the housing bubble, which was overwhelmingly a liberal-caused phenomena.

especially when you consider the fact that I am NOT a republican...

odd though that logic and common sense make them think I am republican...
