It rebounded 4 years ago and is currently at an all time high.
I've made thousands of dollars by investing in the US.

How can the people on this forum be so utterly clueless about their own country?

And this president brags on national media that HE heard the voice of 2/3 of voters that did NOT come out and vote.

How pathetic he is.

How's your stock in Detroit working out for you? The coal industry? Hey, I bet you made a bundle on solar panel stocks, eh?

I think the Republicans have a chance to really expose the Democrats for the radical, fringe group they have become. Their obsession with gays, their obsession with race, their desire to rewrite the past and the future as they see fit.

All the GOP has to do is support unions (to a logical point) and realize they do have their place in America. And make sure they protect business, but workers at the same time. The two should go hand in hand, healthy businesses should lead to good jobs.

But come out and say it, WE are the party of the working folks, not the Democrats. We stand up for your job and your family values.

Try tech, banks, transportation, biotech, blue chips. Solar has paid well also.

Don't be naive or ignorant. Follow auto manufacturers to the south and invest there, invest in nat gas instead of coal, and invest in Chinese solar manufacturers since they out subsidized us.
