If you have ever seen news exhaustion at the end of a week, this was that week. The only surprise after seeing the post-earnings reactions last night was that the market didn't stay down hard. Coming into this morning, we had a 12 day consecutive NASDAQ winning streak. Here were today's unofficial closing bell levels:

Dow 9,095.51 +26.22 (0.29%)
S&P 500 979.78 +3.49 (0.36%)
Nasdaq 1,965.73 -7.87 (-0.40%)

This post is written as part of AOL Money & Finance's Best & Worst 2006. You can vote for Donald Trump's hair as the Worst Signature Style.

Good Mr. Trump, he of the fluffy comb-over, had a heck of a year in 2006. We should all be so lucky (he would ascribe luck to none of it, of course, but that is another matter)!

Just a few of his accomplishments:

  • The Iconic Donald saw his net worth rise again above a mere five billion dollars.
  • He is erecting buildings all over the world, including a Trump Tower in Dubai. The Hair is literally global.
  • He married a stunning model, half his age, and fathered a lovely son whom he subtly named Baron. He has stated for the record that he does not and will not change the baby's diapers.
  • His television show, The Apprentice, is literally one of the top-rated shows in television. To demonstrate that his Trumpian blood line lives on, he fired his firm professionals from the show and put both of his genetically perfect children on camera alongside him. And they are articulate and on the ball, like pop.
  • To put a capper on his TV dominance he put a smack down on his "friend" and Apprentice ingénue, Martha Stewart, when she attempted her own show and talked down the D-man. Nobody does that! Wonder how he handles his enemies when they cross him?

And now, at year end, he is giving foreign-policy style speeches and musing about running for president. And like our current president, the Donald does not drink alcohol. No wonder he is always so crisp.
