The republicans are in Jeopardy of losing control of congress

Big Buisness wants them to maintain control

Strong stock market is helps the GOP

Can big business conspire to make the market rise?

with overly optimistic projections
Large investments
recommendations

etc.?

    thats nearly impossible.


    If you dont understand how many forces move the market then you should stick to your day job and let financial advisors invest for you.

    a group of guys who like republicans cant sit in a room and make the market go up for 5 years in a row now.

    its about as intelligent as thinking Bush stopped hurricanes from happening this year becuase he didnt want to have another Katrina to deal with. not in a election year, that would be political suicide

    Not a group of republicans at all

    the entire business community stands to profit from GOP policies.. Their actions are interpreted by the investing public... surly as a group - even without actual conspiracy can effect confidence and projections

    a nice rally going in election week is surely no beyond their ability.

    The stock market is also impacted by the consumer. Corporations alone can not make the market rise as it has in the past 5 years. And for the sake of the arguement even if corporate America joined forces to help the GOP how would they be able to control the public's spending habits.

    well the record highs in the nasdaq and S & P back then, blew away the recent gains in the DOW, today. the dow is 30 stocks and more of an indicator of the economy.

    now I would almost be willing to listen to these conspriracy theories back during clinton years becuase those gains were completely artifical and had many outside forces involved. those stocks rose to unbelievable highs for no reason at all.

    today the dow is on a steady rise due to good earnings and a strong economy

    I am not talking about the last 4 years.. I am talking about today and the last few months..

    The last 4 years only seem wonderful if you forget the massive crash that preceeded it.

    okay. i wasn't taking sides. i don't know anything about the stock market. like, anything at all. i haven't taken economics since sophomore year of HS and i am a biology major. i just know that records were set recently and i figure he/she deserved some support since they were bascially getting flamed.

    do they typically rise this time of year anyhow? considering that people spend more money getting ready for the holidays and change of weather?

    deserve support? why. how can you support such incoherent claims? unless you believe them yourself.

    I'm glad you admit to knowing nothing about the stock market. you arent the only one around here.

    luckily I do and can add some commen sense to this discussion.

    lol.. CNN and the rest of the media "explain" the reasons for changes several times a day... much like they explain the reason for invading Iraq - or the approval ratings for president - or why school shootings are up.

    CNN should change their name to the Oprah Winfrey show.. because it is not news and surly is not a reliable reference for the workings of the stock market - save perhaps for the number of people it wrongly influences.
