Markets at mid-day seem to be ignoring the price action of GE. GE reports on Friday and there is the spectre of lower earnings, a dividend cut and ratings downgrades. Evidently, the current price of $12.50, discounts these potential events. The other two market leading G’s; Goldman Sachs and Google are both up in price smartly.
S&P 500 is now at 814, after being as high as 823. It really must stay above 800, or confidence, without a burst of Obama pronouncements, will be shattered.
Are you seriously using Craig’s List? Its a great place to sell the stuff you have accumulated. Here, from Lifehacker, is a good tutorial.
Craigslist is a website built for an economy that’s scaling back to basics. People looking for extra cash divest themselves of stuff they don’t really need, and those who need to spend less snatch up their stuff. If you’re on either side, it helps to have the right tools. Get savvy with your selling by digesting Adam’s seller’s guide to Craigslist, and on the flip side with our Craigslist tips for power users. Hone down on exactly what you’re looking for (time is money, after all) with the previously mentionedCraigslist Image Preview extension, or the image mashup MyWiseBunny.com (formerly CLHack.com). It can feel harsh grabbing up deals when you know times are tough, but to many sellers, the buyer who actually pays is worth more than some future ideal of better times.
