Excerpt:

Obama the market killer. The Dow opened at 8281.22 on the morning of Obama's 
inauguration. Today it opens at 7465.95. That's a vote of practically no 
confidence in Obama's strategy for reviving the economy. The numbers were worse 
on the biggest days of the Obama presidency. The Dow fell 332.13 points on 
inauguration day, 381.99 points on the day Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner 
announced step two in the bank bailout, and 297.91 points when the president 
signed the stimulus bill three days ago. Financial markets are a bet on the 
future. The market's view is that an Obamanomics-driven economy looks grim.
