1. I read that it hadn't been that low since 2003---AND?!
I mean, that is only five years ago. Let's face it--it was artificially high and based on fallacy. So this is a little bit of an exaggeration that is being propogated by the media.

2. Does the stock market really reflect our economy's value?
I didn't think so.

4. It does trade as a function of our economic output.
You could argue it does.
