Economic Recovery Bill

Published by julia | Filed under Market Trends, Miscellaneous, Shout Outs

econ-rec-bill.jpgAs most of you know the “Economic Recovery” bill passed today. Some are calling it “The Lobbyists’ Reward” bill because what started as a 3 page document ended up over 400 pages long! So, you can imagine how many moving parts there are to the puzzle.

Some commentators have said there are even parts about the price of imported Jamaican rum, as well as the degree of safety of children’s’ toy wooden arrows! The status of the “mark to market” rules and the up tick/ short selling rule is unsure at this point. Either way, at least it is a step toward stabilization, hopefully bringing normalcy to the market very soon. In the meantime, here are some great rates for the weekend!
