I don't have any evidence but I think Obama is to blame for the violence in the middle east and he probably is to blame for the Korea attack also.
Since you have no evidence why do you blame another person? If your answer is something like "the well-being of my tribe is more important than anything else and anyone not from my tribe", would it make sense to you?
Other than the possibility of Israel going after the Palestinians and risking another war crimes conviction report, calm is about to come back to the middle east. Israel is at peace with two neighbors, and cannot attack their non friendly neighbors because of the risk of losing yet another war after their draw (perceived as major loss by others including Israelies) to south Lebanon, and their failures in Cast Lead.
MON. 3/29 1:15 pm EST Dow+39 The "Ball" reading just came in NEUTRAL calling for FLAT Market action this afternoon. Expect the Averages to close near current levels. Rennick out
MON. 3/29. 2:15 pm EST. Dow+42 I just received an email advising the "Ball" reading has turned decidedly NEGATIVE and is now calling for WEAK Market action into the Close. Now that's more like it! I'm not waiting, going short right now. Dump Baby Dump!!! Rennick out
Contrarian POV: We're not likely to sell off. The DAX closed +0.6%. ETFs holding Japanese, Chinese, & Indian companies are far above fair value.
i am rooting for the Ball! but shorting this market is like swimming with sharks in a Korean minefield.
