It’s Not All Doom and Gloom
It’s the top of the hour, which means news time on talk radio.
So the news reader just made sure we all know that the DOW is DOWN 108 points! Oh no!
Really, it’s 11am. There are 5 more hours of trading. The day could end up up.
I’m sick of the doom and gloom news.
Gloom and doom? Jen, with the way the markets have been lately, if the Dow is only down 108, that’s GOOD news!
And folks our age shouldn’t be obsessing over the Dow anyway. Review and rebalance your holdings once a year, and otherwise leave it alone!
Posted by Pisco Sours on 07/24/08 at 12:45 PMI don’t pay attention to the stock market at all. I guess that’s why I don’t understand why people obsess over it. My boss checks it daily, but he’s about 2 years from retirement and has a lot invested in it.
I’m just sick of hearing how terrible our economy is, because while there are a few things that are troublesome, it’s actually in not terrible shape.
Frustrating.
