Stocks declined Monday, the last day of a volatile and difficult year on Wall Street, as investors awaited a report on home sales.

The National Association of Realtors' is scheduled to release data on November existing home sales at 10 a.m. EDT, and Wall Street expects a decline from October's already low levels.

Investors found some reason to hope that Wall Street would in 2008 be able to put to rest some of its financial troubles. The U.K.'s Observer newspaper reported that Merrill Lynch & Co. was in talks over the weekend to line up capital from investors in China and the Middle East in exchange for portions of the Wall Street firm.

2007 was a pretty good year in the market.

Domestically not a bad year and for those invested in Foreign Markets it was an even better year. Latin America was ON FIRE this year - Great Gains there.

All in all - looking forward to even better in 2008, particularly if the Financial's rally later this year.

The last say of 2007 and the investment community was left suspended in mid-air, grinning unconvincingly, like Wile E. Coyote thirteen yards beyond the edge of the mesa, with a sputtering grenade in each hand and an anvil tied to his ankles.

I tried to post this on the Billy Kristol article, but the Huffies closed it for comments so I will make my comment here with your indulgence.

Billy Krystol is simply a Zionist who wants America to fight Israeli Wars so they don't have to spend their time, treasure and talent doing it. Spending on the war is good business for companies that love to overcharge for every bullet and everything else and Bush wants the war to continue throughout his presidency, he has used his "war powers" to gut the most important document in America, the US Constitution.

What interest do all these foreign investors have in our poor performing companies? Turkey was split up by their creditors after they backed the wrong side in a war. We are in the middle of a war right now and selling ourselves down the river.

If those using terrorism win this war, they will win it the same way we won the cold war.
