i don't understand how banks like citi can mess up so bad. was is intentional fraud by insiders to bankrupt the bank and steal bank assets. short and destroy.
I think the Obama effect is mainly shown in the strength of the dollar. Remember that the USD strengthened as Obama widened the gap to John McCain. So, the world markets might be thinking that if the US is gonna have a shot, it's with him at the helm. Not possible to prove, though.
run on foreign currencies into a perceived safe haven currency $US. gold up on suspicion towards all fiat currency.
market is ONLY money in - - money out nothing else.... no news no president no nothing. At the moment is only money out, and we will see this for longer time ) so US people, dont worry be happy
