DateListPlot with two time list adding 2 labels, and setting the color of the label and lines in plot

Question

This command will produce a chart with two lines on it.

DateListPlot[{CapReg, Equity},  Joined -> True ]

What I would like to do is add a label above the chart "CapReg" in red, and a label below the chart "Equity" in blue. Then I would like to have the color of the CapReg line be red, and the line for Equity be blue. Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance.

Something like the following?

 data1 = {{{2006, 10, 1}, 10}, {{2006, 10, 15}, 12}, 
          {{2006, 10, 30},15}, {{2006, 11, 20}, 20}};
 data2 = {{{2006, 10, 5}, 15}, {{2006, 10, 20}, 8}, 
          {{2006, 11, 10},  5}, {{2006, 11, 15}, 1}};
 DateListPlot[{data1, data2}, PlotStyle -> {Red, Blue}, Joined -> True,
 PlotLabel ->  Row[{Style["CapReg", Red, "Section"],Spacer[15],
                    Style["Equity", Blue, "Section"]}]]

EDIT: For placing parts of plot label in various places, you can use option FrameLabel or the built-in function Labeled as follows:

DateListPlot[{data1, data2}, PlotStyle -> {Red, Blue}, Joined -> True,
FrameLabel -> {{"values", None}, {Column[{"dates", Style["Equity", Blue, "Section"]}, 
 Alignment -> Center], Style["CapReg", Red, Bold, "Section"]}}]

 Labeled[
 DateListPlot[{data1, data2}, PlotStyle -> {Red, Blue}, Joined -> True, 
 FrameLabel -> {{"values", None}, {"dates", None}}], 
  {Style["CapReg", Red, Bold, "Section"], Style["Equity", Blue, Bold, "Section"]},
  {Top, Bottom}]
