I wanted to be out today. Oh well, hopefully the landing won't be to hard.

Hope everyone had a good day.

Yeah, we just went through the same thing with an ice storm, but wasn't as bad as it could have been. Looks like you took the #1 spot on the leader board. Congtatulations! Hopefully there will be a little more upside tomorrow and you can bail. Goodluck on the ice storm power outages.

Headed back in. Hopefully the power stayed on at the temp shelters last night.

Good news, power slowly being restored to the housing areas. Just a couple of spots still out.
Bad news, Ice still all over every thing, suppose to get windy tomorrow, I hope it does not undo all the hard work our electric co. has done and make our military personnel and their families endure more hardship. Shelter living sucks.
More bad news, I did not want to move out of the I fund until 11-1130. I was out and about and never got back to the office.
Hope everone got done what they needed today. Maybe get alittle of it back tomorrow.

Got power back on at the house Saturday night.
Thank goodness for the Camper. Came in handy.

I am still up alittle from my entrance so we will see how Monday goes. Maybe there will be an opportunity to back out with something left in the kitty.

Have a great Sunday

Bank of America simply had an awful day on the Dow, plunging 11.3% to $4.70 and hitting its worst level in what appears to be at least 19 years.

Citigroup Inc, which has also received a large cash injection and a government guarantee of assets, were up as much as 10 percent at $3.82 before falling back to close at $3.49 -- a gain of 0.9 percent, or 3 cents.

General Electrictops the list. Investors are on "bad news watch" for the dividend or credit rating with so much uncertainty surrounding the stock.

Caterpillar is seeing heavy options activity as its stock trades moderately higher today.

General Motors, Nough said

As of Monday, the combined profits for the 217 companies of the S&P 500 that had reported quarterly results were a staggering 42% below Wall Street estimates, according to Thomson Reuters. The consensus Wall Street estimate was accurate for only 20 of those corporations.

You can't hide in this mess. .01% return is looking real good abou now. I think I am going to be sick

GE's Immelt Says He's Prepared to Run Company With AA Rating; Shares Fall General Electric Co. Chief Executive Officer Jeffrey Immelt said capping management pay is “not conducive” to the best leadership while acknowledging “people are angry” at business leaders in general.

Love to see him right that ship, them, Catapillar, GM and Ford.
Couple of biggies that have been good to me.
Of course you know what they say "From the penthouse to the outhouse"

They'll be back and at these prices "All Aboard"

I remember a time in the past when GE split 2 for 1 twice in one year - now that's performance.

Got that right. Ah the good old days. (playing soon in a theater near you)

I noticed a few people creeping out of the (G)arage. Most testing the (S)treet, (C)auseway and (F)reeway. Not quite ready for the (I)nterstate.
Me, I am exceeding the speed limit and need to slow down.
