The Dow Dips

The Wall Street Journal reports a major dip to below 1000 for the Dow Jones Industrial Average before rising ever so slightly above that 1000-marker, where it settled. The culprit? Why, the global economy, of course. The Dow’s 268.7 point fall is the worst since April of 2009 in addition to a marked 3-month low for 2010. Meanwhile, Treasury prices rose, as did the dollar, and investors ran for cover. The bleak unemployment picture also plays a major roll. This is no surprise to Bay Area consumers and especially Northern California consumers in debt as we all balance our budgets, clamor to the internet to check our credit scores and consider filing bankruptcy as a viable avenue to resolve mounting debt through bankruptcy options and hopefully get that Fresh Start everyone has been hearing about.

If you are a San Jose consumer in debt facing similar dips and lows, you may need the advice of a qualified bankruptcy attorney. The economy being what it is and mounting debt against a rising dollar may prompt Bay Area debtors to re-evaluate their finances and seriously consider bankruptcy options.
