As expected, an extremely light day of trading in the Futures Markets. I'd like to wish all members of Elite Trader a Happy and Healthy 4th of July
O beautiful for spacious skies, for amber waves of grain, for purple mountain majesties above the fruited plain! America, America! God shed His grace on thee, and crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea. O beautiful for pilgrim feet, whose stern impassioned stress, a thoroughfare for freedom beat across the wilderness! America, America! God mend thine every flaw, confirm thy soul in self-control, thy liberty in law. O beautiful for heroes proved in liberating strife, who more than self their country loved, and mercy more than life! America, America! May God thy gold refine, 'till all success be nobleness, and every gain divine. O beautiful for patriot dream that sees beyond the years Thine alabaster cities gleam, undimmed by human tears! America, America! God shed His grace on thee, and crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea. <font size=1>----- America the Beautiful, <a href="http://www.fuzzylu.com/falmouth/bates/klbnotes.html">Katherine Lee Bates.</a></font>

Government is the problem." -Ronald Reagan's first inaugural address, Jan 20, 1981. The beginning of the best 8 years this country ever knew. Never has the office of the President been so respected as during that time. A truly great leader.
