Stock Market Woes?

Not if you're holding Smith and Wesson or Ruger stocks (emphasis mine):

Smith & Wesson, one of the iconic names in American weapons making, is up more than 112 percent this year in the wake of its recent strong earnings report. Strum, Ruger, maker of Ruger firearms, is up more than 60 percent.

Funny how we never hear about this on the evening news. Calling Katie Couric!

Updated to actually provide the emphasis (hey, it was late when I wrote this!).
