Dow Drops for 5th Straight Day
With Europe teetering on the brink, France electing a socialist as president vowing to stop spending cuts, and dismal jobs reports here in the USA in April, the Dow has dropped nearly 550 points in the past five working days. Thats half the gains it made since January.
I talked to my dad yesterday about the election. He is a die hard, union Democrat. He believes the economy is getting better and that the election looks good for Obama. Out of respect for my dad I don't argue with him. He went on about how Romney's religion will be a factor and that the election will be about Romney. Democrats are whistling in the dark. This president does not make investors feel confident about the future. European socialism certainly doesn't.
