The WSJ has provided a track of the DOW digress from election day, Nov. 4th, till today.

Update-The DOW did open up today 100 pts. higher. The AP has theorized, via the Daily Beast, that this remarkable "recovery" was due to anticipation of a Fed induced loan of $200 billion to spur lending to consumers and small businesses.
So a rise from the basement floor to the bottom of the stairs is an optimistic boost? The media is now in the business of celebrating Obama's mediocrity and economic bumbling, "Yay!"
