The Stock Market reacts to news and prices stocks according to that news. Sometimes the Market reacts emotionally when the news good or bad is thought to be a first step before more good or bad news whether the news suggests there will be more good or bad news or not.
Or to put it simply the Market is Bipolar its only Rational between the mood swings good and bad.
So lets try to trigger a happy episode the depressed episode has gone on long enough.
Some Good UNEXPECTED NEWS should do it.
Obama is rumored to want to cut the military budget 10% the Stock Market has already priced this information in.
So lets have Obama create some unexpected Good News the Market has not priced in yet, a cut in the military budget of 20%. Lets also have Obama say that we are pulling out of Afghanistan.
Lets have Obama announce he will veto any budget or partial appropriation that does not include these two ideas.
The GOP will scream! The Blue Dogs will threaten to support the GOP in overturning Obama’s veto.
Perfect we have them right where we want them we have defined the battle ground.
The next day we have every loyal Democrat on TV pointing out that the GOP and the Blue Dogs want Pay as you go Rules.
So just what would the GOP and the Blue Dogs cut in the budget to bring spending under control?
Social Security? Medicare?
White Males McCain’s base are getting older as a group. The well off ones who had stocks and own their own homes are hurting.
Men traditionally provide for their family cuts in Social Security and Medicare when Stocks are down and Home prices are down will not go over well.
We need to force the question just what will the GOP and the Blue Dogs cut?
We need to take apart their silence on this question and predictable nonanswers and attempts to change the subject!
We must repeat the Talking Point Answer the Question! What would you cut?
Then we point out that with the money saved from cutting military spending and ending two wars we will expand the Stimulus Plan minus tax cuts, because the GOP and Blue Dogs have shown they are not willing to be Bipartisan.
We point out that like FDR we will put the country to work. We point out that money spent on Green jobs give more back to the economy than tax cuts!
We point out that as a nation we can insure everyone with National Healthcare and still save money.
We say that our current inefficient healthcare system is a Corporate tax on voters with healthcare that rewards inefficiency.
We point out that Military contractors working on Star Wars and Next Generation Weapons programs that will be cut will be given priority to make bids on making stuff for our New high Speed Nation Wide Monorail system!
This move will divide WallStreet and the military industrial complex this will turn White GOP pieces Obama Black in the Game of Go we are playing.
We need our talking heads on the business channels 24/7 explaining how green stocks are the thing to buy.
After all to convert America to green power from coal and nuclear will take decades! After all Israel and Denmark are building charging stations nationwide for electric cars.
And that WE WILL TOO!
That means more demand for electricity, a Nation Wide Electric Monorail system, even More demand for electricity and all of it will one day come from green power. Buy Now!
The Stock Market seeing profit will rise and suddenly start believing in Global Warming thus providing more reason for the Market to switch from GOP white to Obama Black in this game of Go.
How to Raise the Stock Market and make sure that Obama gets the Credit |

Go is a Japanese game of White and black pieces on a square grid you win by placing your pieces in front of the other guy’s pieces and changing their color from White to Black or vice a versa.
Your Apple Genius bar can get it on your dashboard widget for free.
Its also called Reversi or Othello.
My buy now statement is only if we get rid of all the tax cuts end our two wars and get National Healthcare then yes buy green companies and companies that make insulated windows, doors and insulation as to which companies to buy?
I suggest who ever gets the government contracts.
this would have to be framed correctly to have the proper inpact and reduce war profiteer pushback;
“the bush war has forced our need to rebuild and spend to refit our armed forces
this can only be achieved by reducing our military presence, with such reduction even with the economic crisis we are facing we will able to rebuild our armed forces AND lower overall expenditure
it will ALSO serve to stabalize the region since the bush war and our anti human policies made us the target, we will reverse those dangerous policies and concentrate again on making our country safer instead of less secure”
attack every one of their attacks before they use it
I would like to add this, as the Bush led us to Years of Failure with no result we now need to rebuild our armies with what they need right now Bullet Proof Vests and Armored Humvees.
Not Star Wars not Next Generation weapons we need to be able to win fights on the ground.
Many of our generals never learned the lessons of Viet Nam, the first lesson should be don’t agree with the president’s plan to do a major war on the cheap with too little troops and not enough equipment.
Just because agreeing with the President means you get a promotion.
It is not better to rule in hell than serve in heaven.
It is not better to go to war against your better judgment as to the number of troops needed, the amount of equipment required and a plan you think will work.
Generals from Petraeus to Custer throughout American history have forgotten this in their quests for glory that ended in failure.
