What our 401K Plan could look like if the government has its way.

Argentina Impoverishes Itself Again.
What happens when government meddles with private wealth.

Last week La Nacion columnist Adrián Ventura reminded his compatriots of this "history of state fraud." In the 1960s, "the law guaranteed retirees 82% of their salaries," Mr. Ventura writes. But, he says, "it became impossible to calculate." How come? Because the government did not publish the true rates of inflation and, more broadly, because politicians had zero interest in protecting the assets. "The government did little to maintain its promise to pay good pensions to workers," Mr. Ventura explains, "and it did a lot to make use, for itself, of their savings."

Stocks stage huge rebound; Dow jumps 553 points

After testing the October 10th low in the S&P, Institutional investors bought hard, forcing the shorts to cover their shorts and add fuel to the rally.

-- Investors did an abrupt turnaround on Wall Street Thursday, muscling the Dow Jones industrial average up more than 550 points after driving it down near its lows for the year on a stream of negative economic and corporate news.

Many analysts had predicted the stock market would retest the multiyear lows it reached last month. They also still forecast volatility for some time to come, as Wall Street tries to rebuild from October's devastating losses and gauge the severity of the economy's downturn. During past recoveries from bear markets, a great deal of turbulence in the market became commonplace -- so it's possible that Thursday's gains will get erased if more gloomy reports pour in.

Wall Street ended a turbulent week with another astonishing show of volatility Friday, with stocks plunging, recovering and then plunging again as investors absorbed another wave of downbeat economic news.........
.......Wall Street's violent swings in recent weeks are part of the market's ongoing "bottoming" process, analysts say, in which the market retests the lows hit last month. The market is expected to remain volatile, as evidenced by past recoveries from a bear market.

MEMPHIS, Tenn.-FedEx Freight today announced that it has reduced transit times on more than 3,300 regional next-day, second-day and extended routes since Jan. 1, 2008.

These service improvements enable faster delivery of freight, quicker go-to-market time and better inventory management for customers using fast-cycle logistics. FedEx Freight is a leading provider of regional less-than-truckload (LTL) freight transportation services and an operating company of FedEx Corp. (NYSE:FDX - News).

Collectively, these transit-time enhancements at FedEx Freight improve service within the continental United States, Hawaii, Mexico and Canada. FedEx Freight offers next-day or second-day service for more than 68,000 network lanes.

“As a regional LTL market sector leader, FedEx Freight continuously evaluates its transportation network to determine improvement opportunities,” said Douglas G. Duncan, president and CEO, FedEx Freight. “Our dedicated employees and state-of-the-art, proprietary technology systems enable us to constantly refine our lanes, improve transits times and increase operational efficiencies.”

This summer, FedEx Freight service from Omaha, Neb., was reduced from two business days to one to points in Illinois, including Chicagoland, and to locations in Wisconsin. Other enhancements include two- to one-business day service from St. Louis to points in Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin.

While other companies are cutting back in this economic environment, we're enhancing our service and taking market share! Look at Conway closing 40 service centers with 20 more possibly on the block....Hollland at over 100 O/R, other companies laying off and hiring lease drivers because they can't compete.

Round for round, pound for pound, FedEx Freight is the best LTL around!!! :1036316054:

Dow Ends Below 8,000, More Than 5-Year Low


Wednesday marked an ugly session on Wall Street, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq tumbling to their lowest levels in five years and the Dow dropping to a five-year closing low. Concerns over the fate of U.S. automakers, disappointing economic data, a dour outlook from the Fed and the market's inability to hold its lows fueled the selling interest.
Wall Street hit levels not seen since 2003 on Wednesday, with the Dow Jones industrial average plunging below the 8,000 mark amid a dour economic outlook from the Federal Reserve and worries over the fate of Detroit's three automakers.

Dow up 494 as Obama prepares to name treasury boss


Wall Street put a stop to a terrifying decline and stormed higher Friday as President-elect Barack Obama appeared ready to tap the chief of the New York Federal Reserve as the next treasury secretary and hand him the herculean task of righting the U.S. financial system.
