The government probably wants to prepare the public and the markets. If some terrorist act does take place it will not be as shocking as 911.

By that I mean, it will not come unexpectedly.

They probably feel it is better to have markets price in this possibility to some degree.

There is no doubt that if stocks are at lower valuations, the shock will be a lot less.

btw--I don't think anything is going to happen but a little fear or caution is a good thing.
