All hail Dow 10,000--but what's next?

Go ahead and cheer. The Dow Jones industrials moved above 10,000 for the first time in a year. http://articles.moneycentral.msn.com/Investing/Dispatch/default.aspx?feat=1318780&GT1=33009

Before everyone starts rejoicing that the Dow Jones had crossed the mythical 10,000 barrier today, had better look around as there still a strong sense of uncertainty in the economy. Wall Street may jump for joy but Main Street and small business still feel the effects of the economic downturn. As the debate shifts into high gear, small businesses are waiting to see what the outcome of Health Care Reform will be, will taxes be raised, what will be the final outcome of Cap & Trade and a host of other issues that affect the bottom line of small businesses across this nation. Washington seems to listen to corporate America and not small businesses or the American people. It’s too early to tell what the affects will be, but I am not holding my breath Washington will get it right!
