The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity, but the one that removes awareness of other possibilities, that makes it seem inconceivable that other ways are viable, that removes the sense that there is an outside. --Allan Bloom

It's good news for your 401K plan, that's for sure. I've started to reinvest in the market last Spring, but at a much smaller % than previously. What we need are jobs and that front still doesn't look to good. Over 500,000 new claims last week, but down from the week before. Sustained recoveries require job creation and we're not seeing that yet. Let's hope it's just around the corner.
