Stocks fall as investors ponder Obama presidency

NEW YORK (AP) -- A case of post-election nerves sent stocks lower Wednesday as investors worried about recession began questioning what impact a Barack Obama presidency will have on business and the overall economy. The Dow Jones industrials dropped more than 300 points and the major indexes all fell more than 3 percent.

Eh. The Dow was up 500+ in the last two days based on absolutely nothing other than the polls. The fact that the markets fell only 300 today is actually a decent vote of confidence by the markets. For a Democrat, that's pretty rare.

As soon as the polls showed Obama up by so much so late, it became a classic case of 'buy the rumor, sell the news'.

I'd vote if there was a "nothing" option...

I think I can hold my own

As for my comments, it is nothing against Obama, even though I find him borish and having the personality of a robot. And I would be saying the same thing had McCain won. But we see this every single election - promises, crafty marketing scheme slogans, and nothing changes. In fact, it has gotten progressively worse every 4 years. I just wonder if everyone would actually buy into this "change," "hope," etc. crap if he weren't black...

NEW YORK, Nov 5 (Reuters) - Wall Street hardly delivered a
rousing welcome to President-elect Barack Obama on Wednesday,
dropping by the largest margin on record for a day following a U.S.
presidential contest.

I'm sure it's just a coincidence. Nothing to worry about.

In the big picture, 1 day is insignificant, but one thing we do know is that the market did not react to the election results with raging optimism.
