I don't trust China regarding their data or anything else.

Johnson should just go away and never come back..

Absolutely no reason the market should be up other than continued manipulation.  With all the negative economic news around the globe this market should be down around 10,000 or so.

The revenue miss indicates they aren't growing their business by selling more aluminum but are trying to "cost cut" their way to meet their numbers.  Alcoa used to have a slogan that said " Alcoa Can't Wait " we'll guess what...neither can their investors!  This company is going nowhere.

Some other company will now hire Johnson regardless of his poor performance.  It's just the old "CEO" club..once your in your in.

The market "farce" won't end as long as Wall St is a manipulated and controlled market.  Our gov will continue to do whatever it takes to keep this market propped up.

Looks like the "manipulators" are at hard at work today to minimize the market losses.  At one point the market was down over 170 points but is now only down 77 points.  Government intervention?

88,000 jobs added in March most of which are low paying with minimal or no benefits.  Even our gov and the media can't hide from this much longer.  Let the truth be told!

Who cares about Japan.  Just another country in financial trouble with no way out but to print money.
