Congress Beats Down The Bush Bailout Plan. Now What?

Sep 29, 2008 Stock Market News

To my and many other traders surprise the house of congress denied the passage of the $700b bailout plan and caused mania today in the stock market. The Dow Jones index fell 400 points in a matter of 10 minutes after the bailout bill was slammed by 2/3 of the congressional board. This is the largest single day decline in the Dow Jones index in history. Seems like were making new records every week……. Here’s what Bush is saying to congress today(photo below) : Walking away with his american flag that hes going to burn… I could imagine Bush is ready to pass this mess on to a new president to handle. He’s served through some rough times.

This market environment is extremely tough. Confidence is low, risk is high, and the possibility of losing money is legitimate considering the large swings we are seeing if you are trying to make that gamble of betting on how this market is going to react. I’m sure a lot of people lost money today trying to bet on the bailout plan. I held off from placing any bets on this bailout plan as the market had made a rally into last weeks close which discounted the bailout plan. The typical “Buy the rumer, sell the news”. I Was expecting the decline today in the markets but not a 780 point move in the dow haha!

Although this bill didn’t get passed i’m sure that there will be some kind of resolution to this chaos with a new bill soon. I highly doubt they’re just going to walk away and see how things pan out without coming up with a new plan. If no plan is enacted more banks are going to go under, more risk and uncertainty will cloud the atmosphere of the markets. Listening to CNBC we should be expecting some more news about the resolution later this week with more negotiations.

Look at Technical Analysis of the Dow Jones index it has been in a steady downtrend for nearly 1.5 years suggesting we’ve been in a bear market with short term bull swings which only last to the upside resistance level of the descending channel in play. Todays 780 point decline pushed price down to the lower support level of the descending channel with a lot of bearish momentum into the close as we ended the day near its lows. Yet this support level suggests a higher probability of a bounce near this levels if history repeats itself. A breakdown and things could get worse, especially if congress and the bush administration are slow to act on a new bailout plan.

The Human Torch… was denied a bank loan…..

There will be no “bailout”… the market may speak loud with -700 move, but the voters spoke louder… and the the Dow was down 400 when the bill was being taken up. Either the insurance system (not a bailout) or a massive cut in cap gains (to stimulate solid companies growing into and buying their ways into the voids of the bad).

This was probably for the best, it was a rushed plan and no ones was really paying attention to the details to check if this would actually help recoverable companies or just prolong the drop.

Ive been following Fous since my last year of college, so that makes it about 2 years now. When I first started following his site I couldnt believe how often he was right, and how consistent he was. He was picking 80-90% winners. 2 years later he is still going strong and making everyone money. He is a cool guy, real friendly and answers your questions. You wouldn’t believe how much you can learn just by watching him and his all-star team trade. Every regular brings different ideas and trading styles. I rarely talk on the boards because I follow his trades on my cell phone while at work. I love being able to make double money. My daytime salary and my TTT.net trades.As long as I am trading, I will be trading with Fous.

I have been with fous for 3 years now. If I had to describe him in one sentence it would be this. “A disciplined trader with a uncanny ability to spot highly profitable charts.”

Other sites just give you stock picks but fous lives by this…..
“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” He has given me great profits through his stock choices, but more importantly and invaluable, he has been very open with his insight.

On a personal note to fous —— Thank you for your generosity of knowledge. If someone asked me where you will be in 10 years I would say head of a multi billion dollar hedge fund. I would be confident in giving you money to trade because of the trust you have earned and the discipline you have shown.

Sincerely, mysher
