Politicians Lie. No, Really, They Do. (and so do bankers)

Mark this day down as number 14 of the last 16 in which the stock market (major indices) registered gains.

Below: "Get Happy" composed by Harold Arlen, with lyrics written by Ted Koehler. It was the first song they wrote together, and was introduced by Ruth Etting in The Nine-Fifteen Revue in 1930. Judy Garland performs the depression era hit in the film, Summer Stock (1950).
