America's post-election glow didn't even make it to the opening bell. After meandering near the flat-line all night markets were slammed when ECB President Mario Draghi said he was anticipating weakness in the European economy for the foreseeable future. Draghi's remarks came ahead of efforts by Greek officials to pass yet another austerity package in order to avoid economic collapse. In the face of such uncertainty traders decided discretion was the better part of valor and sold off stocks by more than 2% in early trading.

Well that just goes to show that "Fox"and co. will blame everything on Obama and the election just like they've been doing this entire time. Not surprised

Romney lost in his home turf. The state he governed himself. That says it all...Nothing to do with black or white

Care to comment on Chris Matthews' comments on Sandy being a blessing?

Fox News, MSNBC...they're all the same crap. No one should be getting their news from either source.

I think to say the market going down has nothing to do with the outcome of the election is naive. I don't think it'sw a tell tale sign of things to come. Bonn's opinion I think is correct. A bunch of heavy investors are making a point. It'll be back above 13K by next week at the latest.

But people still have every right to be upset. President Obama said as much himself. There has to be compromise for the greater good this time around. We'll be crippled if Washington doesn't get its head out of its ass.

I agree. Your job in the media is to present facts and have people from both parties debate them. CNN does a slightly better job at not trying to sway public opinion with their bias. Msnbc is just as bad as fox. It's no different then espn radio. They are in it for the ratings. People who despise fox still watch and vice-versa with msnbc

The dow futures was back and forth after the election results and was flat until this news came out from Draghi...What I have posted is a fact not an opinion..I can gather 30 news stories from market professionals that will tell u the reason for the drop....There are market professionals on this board that will tell u what I'm saying is correct...

Why do people complain about paying taxes when they will be forced to pay it no matter who is in office?

He didn't present misleading information. He just made a statement in poor taste and then immediately corrected it. Matthews: "I'm so glad we had that storm last week because I think the storm was one of those things. No, politically I should say. Not in terms of hurting people."

If a conservative pundit would've said the same exact thing it would be headline news. What he said was garbage and he should 5hit on as much as possible.

The 2016 republican race will be interesting. Do the racist that are out there who've only ever voted republican now vote for hispanic Republican Marco Rubio to represent them or do they go with Rep. Chris Christie. Do hispanics vote for Rubio because he is hispanic? Should be fascinating to watch

FeltonandAmare - your selective memory is positively stunning. Or have you completely whitewashed where the stock market was on January 20, 2009?

Where the market was under the second term of the previous administration? Please.

The stock market is alive and well. Try again.

This is just pure ignorance and stupidity. It's not funny in the least. You are part of a diminishing part of the country. The Stock Market has been flourishing under Obama and you know that is the truth. One bad day is not indicative of how good things have been for those in the stock market.

The Stock market isn't really the issue anyway. What is most important is getting the poor and middle class back on track and making gains again. We need real change to fix income inequality. The rich have been taking an increasingly greater share of the country's wealth over the last 30 yrs and that has to change. The elites in this country have been rigging the system to slant things their way and that has weakened the country. This country is strongest when the fast majority are doing well as they did after WWII. We've got to get back to a more balanced system and that's what Obama stands for.

You have to be living in a cave (or watching nothing but Fox News) to make the comment F & A just did.
