Stocks were rocked this morning by new that China's stock market was in free fall due to their need to restructure some serious debt in their financial makeup. At one point during the day the Dow was down over 200 points. Slowly throughout the afternoon, however, stocks inched upward at the expense of bonds. The Dow closed down 51 points while the S&P 500 closed down less than a point and the NASDAQ gained 25.

Glad the read it didn't affect the stock market as much. Be interesting to see how volatile the market will be tomorrow.

Our country is in a bad place right now. Hopefully we will learn from others and past mistakes to improve our standing!

I agree with Captain Wayne Rowlett! The US economy certainly isn't rebounding at an astounding rate and volatility in other countries likely won't enable our economic growth.

Wow, interesting I thought I saw some news previously that said China had just overtaken us as far as economic strength.

Jeff, as China goes, we go. Hope they can restructure their financial sector so we all stay afloat.
