what gives

I did have a malicious thought for moment. If "da Boyz" knew the USA incident was a terrorist attack, but the news was kept low while they sold stocks at the high to some poor dumb suckers who are thinking the recovery is in, they would have a very handy excuse when the market suddenly dived. They could say "terrorists did it!!". Some UK unemployed Muslim troublemakers could be doing the same thing here. Who knows? Some one could have slipped them a few quid for encouragement.

Of course I'm glad to say these days the markets are better regulated and such nefarious activity has been banned -g-
