Philster says the big crash wont come til after the election. DJ Bush Aide Rove To Lose Policy Portfolio - Sr Official . WASHINGTON (AP)--In another move in an ongoing shakeup of President George W. Bush's staff, longtime confidant and adviser Karl Rove is giving up oversight of policy development to focus more on politics with the approach of the fall midterm elections, a senior administration official said Wednesday. Just over a year ago, Rove was promoted to deputy chief of staff in charge of most White House policy coordination. That new portfolio came on top of his title as senior adviser and role of chief policy aide to Bush. But now, the job of deputy chief of staff for policy is being given to Joel Kaplan, now the White House's deputy budget director, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the president hadn't yet made the announcement. The move signals a possibly broad effort to rearrange and reinvigorate Bush's staff by new chief of staff Joshua Bolten. Bolten moved into his position last week; Kaplan was his No. 2 person at the Office of Management and Budget. At least for the time being, the promotion of Kaplan would leave Bush with three deputy chiefs of staff: Rove, Kaplan and Joe Hagin, who oversees administrative matters, intelligence and other national security issues.

Why do you think stock and commodity prices will move in tandem?

>>The next significant drop in the stock and commodity markets is going to be MUCH WORSE than anything we have seen the past 3 years IMHO.<< What took place yesterday was the start of something significant. Hint: it's NOT bearish. Clearly, the bears were certainly out in force yesterday trying to sell short ahead of the rally. The Precious Gold stocks, Energy stocks, Industrial Material Stocks, $RUT, $MID, are the leaders of this Bull Market. Before you get your "significant correction", these markets are moving considerably higher, much higher. I think Nasdaq Comp 2850 is quite possible here by the summer. Watch out above! Don't underestimate these markets. These markets are powerful. It sure don't take much to juice up the Bears. LOL
