S&P 500 Above 1080

Thanks to Intel’s (INTC) impressive earnings report, the market is up again today. As a rule, Octobers following presidential elections don’t have a great history for Wall Street, but this October is defying expectations.
The S&P 500 is currently up to 1083 which is about 60% above the March 9 closing low. I’ve been amazed that there are folks who have dismissed this rally from the get-go. Why aren’t they groveling to Jon Stewart? Where’s the public anger at them?
As impressive as this rally has been, we’re still a long way from where the market was. Going back to the beginning of 2008, the S&P 500 is still down by about 25%.
