Well, there is more to it than just the passage of the health care bill, there is the whole mess with Greece going bankrupt, but stock futures have dropped like a rock, if you own stocks then today is the day to hang on for a bumpy ride. Oh, but gold and silver may be good to you? Time will tell... but I sure would not want to be holding healthcare or pharma stocks right now.

Watch the stock prices on the insurance companies, I'm willing to bet they go up.

Joe you are a winner or at least the stock market went up overall and not down with the passage of health care. No doomsday bust as many may of predicted or thought would happen......
