Wheeee! It was a good day on the Wall Street roller coaster, with the Dow up nearly 900 points. Things took off after the White House told banks to stop hoarding the money we gave them. In a stern tone of voice, the White House told the banks, “Are you going to share, or do I have to take your toys away?” If the banks refuse to share, they’re in for a serious time out.
