The stock markets are stupid

I have come to the conclusion that most investors are sheep and most of them make stupid decisions.

Today we had alot of really bad financial news. Oil closed over 100 dollars a barrel. Inflation is way up, consumer confidence is way down.

yet the stock market is up today. WHy in gods name would people be buying more stocks when the financial picture is so shakey? Oh well IBM is buying back some of thier own stock. One company out of thousands of publicly traded companies does something slightly positive and the entire stock market has a cluster F.
It's totally irational. People who do this for a living must be basket cases.

I have come to the conclusion that you do not have a great understanding of economics.
