1. A lot of the daily fluctuation in the markets comes from day and swing traders. You cannot base your policy on the whims of these folk whose actions do not necessarily reflect any economic reality.
2. Obama needs to let the market bottom out. Trying to prop up the market is an impossible black hole operation. Only one word needs to be said to explain why the market has not reached bottomed out yet -- derivatives. The White House should let the markets work out things naturally without trying to play to the market.
