Actually the stock market tends to do pretty well with a democrat in office as long as the President doesn't tax the shit out of the country, corporations and small businesses. Obama if he does raise the cap gains tax it will be minimal. I am starting to believe that Obama will not do any of the things he promised the masses and will more than likely govern from the center.

As far as the stock market goes with higher cap gains taxes people are less likely to take profits out and stocks tend to grow better without crazy volatility. The stock market was just trying to send a message to Obama this week.....you fuck with us and we will fuck with you. If you don't believe that than you don't know how business works.
