Maybe you knew that, but I didn't, and I'm sure most didn't.

I'm used to this type of argument. I get it from my sister all the time. She thinks that certain things being true are dependent on whether or not she knows about them. She also assumes that if she doesn't know something, that most other people don't know about it either. This is how a child sees the world.

O'Neill's demise was predicted right here on SI probably six months to a year ago. If you spent less time taking pot shots at the US maybe you'd have had time to read the discussion and then you'd have known too.

Everyone always wants to assign a reason for the market doing this or that. What is comical is that sometimes the same reason is used for up as well as down. I guess it beats the announcers saying things like, "The market moved down sharply for no discernable reason" So they pick whatever news is handy and assign it the cause. If the market had moved up today, they'd have said the market was happy with the nomination....since it moved down they say, "the market moved down on the nomination, dollar concerns, deficit concerns..." etc.

Meanwhile all you really have are a bunch of people trying to make money or trying to protect a profit or thinking everyone else is selling so they should too....or thinking, "I better buy the dip, but I think I'll put my order down here because it looks like I could get it cheaper." etc etc etc
