NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Stocks rallied Tuesday as investors welcomed news that the Federal Reserve will lend up to $200 billion to banks and lenders as a means of loosening up tight credit markets.

According to early tallies, the Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) jumped almost 417 points, its fourth-biggest one-day point gain ever and the biggest one-day point gain since July 2002. In percentage terms, the gain of 3.55% was the best since March 2003.

The blue-chip index had ended the previous session at a 17-month low.

Should I roll this in with the 'stupid americans' thread?

Sorry, I'm a mod, I should know better.
 
Just curious here, where do you think the Fed is going to get this money from?

Happy trading!

Yes, we were all worried over nothing, we will fly to all time highs within 3 weeks.

Just incase anyone took my comments seriously, I am being sarcastic.

At least it will provide another good shorting opportunity shortly.
 
Its ok, its all AAA debt! LOL! (The banks told me so ... and Ambac and S&P agreed ... move along ... nothing going on here lol)

(for the less astute yes that was more sarcasm)
