<2> Is it a common perception that bank rates are per month?
<7> are you asking if banks compound monthly?
<2> Is it a common perception that bank rates are per month?
<7> for a lot of the banks I know, they compound daily
<2> that, not what; mean
<0> interest is added to my account monthly
<0> which is why i was confused
<0> invest_wk, p2 is looking nice
<2> that's not how it works drifty
<7> yea, thanks. I think many are thinking US market will move up for a couple of months or so 'til about July
<7> healthcare, and defensive stocks seem to be moving up now
<0> defensive stocks haven't been moving up for the past three years?
<7> good reason to move now :)
<7> i.e. bluechip defensive
<7> but recovery will be short term, as I'm very bearish on the US market
<7> for the long term anyways.. as well as the dollar

<15> brenanke needs to keep his mouth shut in the future
<15> *bernanke
<15> his comments to reports had such a profound affect on the markets
<18> reporters
<1> lol ppl just blame him
<1> for nothing
<1> he's just 1 man
<1> he can't move the markets that substantially
<15> I think he can... he can put fear into people/investors about interest rate hikes
<15> look at how emotion has driven the economy the last 2.5 weeks
<15> the markets
<15> m***ive panic selling
<1> well interest rate hikes aren't his fault
<1> the market would've dropped anyways
<1> either on rampant inflation
<1> or cuz of interest rate hikes ;)
<1> take your pick
<1> he might be a moron...but he's really not that important
<17> i liked greenspan
<15> well, he shouldn't be making comments to some lame reporter who will run her mouth on live TV and freak everyone out..
<15> that reporter needs her *** kicked
<1> nah
<1> the idiots who either paid too much for stocks
<1> or dumped them
<1> need their ***es kicked ;)
