This week I read another article about the stock market.  It was in Wednesday's newspaper and written by Gail Marks Jarvis.  The article was called "Stocks Unfazed By Stalemate."  It said that even though the government is temporarily  shut down,  investors of the stock market did not panic and frantically sell out.  The article explains says that if anything, the stocks went up.  I was scared at first with our virtual stock market game, but luckily I forgot to check my stocks so I didn't have a chance to sell out.

    I'm surprised that the stocks didn't completely crash. But there are also people with different jobs that haven't been affected (money wise) by the shut down.

    I was also worried about my stocks. I also thought that the government shut down would cause everthing to plumit, but luckily it did not. I am glad that the stocks went up.

    I expected the stocks to go down but either way people are still out of jobs.
