DOW up, so MSNBC only showing NASDAQ (down)
Another example of the 'liberal' media.

1. I thought I kept missing the switch to the DOW.
No wonder. They're only showing the NASDAQ.

Good grief.

4. Maybe a problem with the screen display?
They just showed the Dow board before going to commercial.

5. Why is the Dow up?
Is there good economic news I missed this morning? I feel like doing a naked Chicken Little run.

7. DOW up 0.5%...Related to P&G, according to Yahoo
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/SampP-Nasdaq-fall-as-Intel-rb-14932976.html

NASDAQ falling is related to a 4% drop for INTEL.

6. And the DOW and NASDAQ are indications of what, exactly?
They're certainly not indications of the economic health of this nation, never have been. Frankly, both the DOW and the NADAQ are really little more than distractions for the masses.

8. It's just that they always show this (usually DOW) during Obama's talks.
It's silly but it's like an instant vote on what's being said by Obama and others.

9. Its a leading indicator of CNBC's ability to talk normal people into gambling their money...
so that they allow rich people to sell off and collect their profits
