It's like the slot machine still works but you can't see the icons to tell you if you're winning or not.

Also, new trends mean new types of investing. So there's going to be shifting.

I don't think the market is as volatile as it seems. Something tells me that once we have a democratic administration again the world will chill and the markets will stabilize.

That was my biggest fear of McCain, besides his provocative temper and utter lack of diplomatic (grown up) tone in today's iffy world climate, was how the world saw him…just like Bush…four more years of hell and cowboyism…the stock markets would be like Mr. Toad's wild ride.

With the democratic administration, people will see calm, reason and strength returning to the american reputation. This will have a soothing effect on the markets.
