and Is this a false rally & will there be a huge drop? Dow reported a drop of 97% in 1Qtr profit. Chrysler is heading to bankruptcy. Looks like banks (i.e. Bank of America & C) may need more government funding.
And yet the stock market is rising. Nothing strongly indicates this recession is over yet players are buying into stocks.
Is this a false rally?. What do you guys think?. If and when GM goes down, will it trigger a drop in the DJ?.

A. $240
B. $480
C. $720
D. $960
E. $1,200
The answer according to the book is $1,200. But I used the following formula:
$4,000 * (1.06)^5

i have a few question on governnment bonds?
April 30, 2009
Here are quotes from a report on Indian govt bonds â??
QUOTE 1
â??If you could look at the spread for five-year AAA versus the 10-year, the spread compression has happened more at the five-year AAA corporate bond as compared to the 10-year. Therefore I believe that there is some juice left on the ten-year AAA corporate bond as compared to the five-year.â??
My Question1 – Please explain what is spread compression, and why is less spread compression better
QUOTE 2
â??Govt has introduced small steps like exchange traded futures strips which will all go long way in deepening bond marketâ??
My Question 2 – What is exchange traded futures strips
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Question 3 â?? What are the reasons why bond prices rise.
I know one reason – its because IR may come down and everybody chases the higher coupon bond,.
Is this another reason ? govt bonds are redeemed . Does this mean that there is more money in the system which automatically lowers the Interest Rate ? Or is it so that there are less bonds in the system so the value for bonds go up.
Is this another reason ? If the ec is booming we can expect the bonds to rise. But Why ?, more

and What does "Selling Short" mean? How do you make money from selling short in the stock market?, more
can someone help with Financial question? You intend to leave your three children no less than two million dollars each by the time you retire at 70. A paragon of virtue that you are, in that you uphold the importance of industriousness, discipline, education, personal freedom restrained by responsibility to loved ones and to others, you and your wife will do everything you could including sending your children to the most exclusive universities in the land, to make them successful financially and otherwise. In your view, leaving them two million when you retire is just a blissful gesture of parenthood, and the responsibility that collective parenthood calls for in our society.
To achieve your goal, you have to start investing on the dates of your childrenâ??s birth days which happen to be on your 30th birth day for your first child, on your 32nd birth day for your second child and 34th birth day for your third child. You and your wife share the same birth day.
You might consider using the commonly used Consumer Price Index (CPI) to measure the magnitude of the invisible economic force that nibbles at your well-intentioned well-being of your children, that is, you should protect your children against the illusion of having a Victorian Mansion in the most coveted spot in the land, while indeed, they may not be able to afford an umbrella-sized roof over their head, just to mention one of the necessities of life, say, in NYC���.
The state of the economy suggests that CPI in 2000, when you start investing, is almost 100. It is predicted to be 327 in 2040. That implies a reduction in buying power i.e. the change in cost of living of almost 3%. The nominal interest rate is expected to be 10% (on average) over the period you are considering.
You are required to come up with a sound financial planning to achieve your goal. Determine how much, where, when and how to invest to achieve your goals?, more
