Wall St Week Ahead: Dow nears 12,000 before

NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. stocks rose on Friday, driving the Dow to another all-time high as positive retail sales data helped the broader market.

The Dow Jones industrial average <.DJI> was up 12.81 points, or 0.11 percent, to end at a record 11,960.51, which also marked a fresh intraday all-time high. --Now's a GREAT time to buy and take advantage of some bargin basement stock pricing!!</b>

This whole dip in the DJIA is predicated on what's going on in the Middle East with Iran and Syria backing the Hezzbollah terrorists.

It will probably get worse before it gets better, but once the dust settles investors will mellow out--only idiots are selling off right now--the smart thing is to buy the right stock aggressively now at temperarily low pricing.

Another place people will hide their money is in the Bond market which cause interest rates to go back down again and a lot of people feeling uneasy in adjustables will be able to comfortably and beneficially secure fixed products and many more homebuyers will be able to lock and load and it will be yet ANOTHER BOOM to the Housing market which benefits all aspect of society and our economy expedentially.

Then if Bernanke signals that the Fed. is done raising the funds rate next time they meet or perhaps the time after that then you'll see Wall Street and investors take off like gangbusters!!! </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Tahoma,verdana,arial,helv">
