I gues the BoA stockholders were wondering what in the hell good could have come out of the AIG 50 billion buyout. But all in all it was a pretty crappy day, DOW said they were down 4.4% and Nasdaq said they were down 4.6%. Didn't check S&P.

ahhhhh,they didnt buy aig

I was watching the morning news from 6-9 this morning, the money guy had a bit of advise. We all know what he said, whether we heard it directly or not.

"Conservative investors should keep doing what they're doing"

"Day traders, it's a great time to buy"

Ha ha. No kidding?

You guys remember when gold was trading for $1000/oz? News anchors were "advising" to buy gold because it was just gonna keep going up. How much is gold now... $776.90. I'd be pissed if I didn't have any brains and just went out and bought like I was told.
