Remember the proposal for futures based on terrorism events? That was laughed out of town. Now it doesn't seem like a bad idea to have events foretold in financial instruments.

Bomb Europe, Long USD/CHF.
Bomb USA, Long EUR/USD.
Put Options.

 

What bunk. Don't you people look at market data beyond a couple weeks? Journalists sure don't. The British pound topped out in December, along with the Euro, and has been selling since May.
