The Dow Jones Industrial Average Index crashed 391 points today following earlier losses on stock exchanges throughout the world. The feverish selling is thought to be in reaction to Federal Reserve Chairman's Ben Bernanke's announcement of "Operation Twist" yesterday.

  • The Obama Depression will result from a continued sell off. Huge debt, & massive spending on both sides of the Atlantic, coupled with trillions in unregulated derivatives are all contributing to this bearish selling in both commodities and stocks.

  • @Geostrategic1 It's definitely getting scary at this point.

  • @ConservativeNewMedia Being that Italy's bond rating has just been downgraded, France could be next, then the E.U. debt dilemma will devolve to meltdown level, immediately whacking Wall Street & world markets. Nigel was so correct in his repeated economic & currency prognostications for the near future, coupled with non-stop warnings concerning the inevitable deleterious effects of continued uncontrolled debt, wild spending, sovereignty threats, and over taxation by the E.U.'s leftist tyrants.

  • @Geostrategic1 It certainly does not look good, my friend. At least in the short term. The debt is completely out of control in so many nations. A very serious re-ordering is in order, and it won't be easy while it's done.

  • Stimulus can only stimulate the economy. It will never fix the economy. I have been saying since April that the market will crash after QE 2 expires.I said it would definitely crash before Christmas and probably in the fall. This is a debt crisis and the solution is not to create more debt and devalue the worlds currencies. The only thing that will stop the markets bloodbath is QE 3. I fear that's what they will do. Like QE 2, QE 3 will make the situation worse.

  • @MrGearySr Excellent post, thanks!

  • I see the "Ramen Recovery" as I call it continues unabated. But Obama and Co. will take NO responsibility no matter what. It's always somebody or something else's fault, always.

  • This is scary as heck. I mean the economy is already bad enough as it is.

  • @88888FORCE Let's hope it doesn't become a 3-day sell-off

  • US Stocks Slump,

    Sept-22-2011--NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Investors staged a global flight from risk Thursday that sent the Dow Jones Industrial Average to its worst two-day point drop since November 2008, after a gloomy outlook by the Federal Reserve renewed fears of an economic slowdown.
