NASA Schedules News Briefing About Unusual Solar Object The discovery of a mysterious object in our solar system is the topic of a listen-and-log-on news briefing on Monday, March 15, at 1 p.m. EST. http://www.nasa.gov/home/hqnews/2004/mar/HQ_n04040_solar_object.html
and "unusual". One gets announced by Nasa, the other by POTUS. Given that this one is being announced by NASA I don't think it will have muh of an impact (sorry, just couldn't help myself) on trading Monday.
Depends on whether it's an asteroid that's going to strike us and wipe out life as we know it, or the mother ship to a fleet of alien fighters that are going to attack us and wipe out life as we know it. All that matters to us, of course, is whether to go short or long.
DP's post brings up and interesting point. Long or short the human race's chances or not long term? I'm a glass half full kind of guys so I'm long, I'm also out of here till Sunday. Have a good weekend guys.
It's ET!!! No, it's a mere planetoid. This news came out 2 weeks ago. Hardly a market mover. Sorry...
