Actually, there's no need for me to factor "God" into my nuclear tsunami equation: FIVE one-megaton nukes were more than enough to do the trick....

Re: Indeed, it may suit me if the stock market comes down because I want to buy some shares, but by no stretch of the imagination will any sane person believe that I have the power to bring it down.

Of course, that's because nobody cares about Mr Sennett's opinions on the stock market or global finance... yet I believe it doesn't hold true for, say, George Soros. Well, I grant you that Mr Soros' star has faded a bit... How about Bill Gates? Or Warren Buffet? Or Alan Greenspan? Those guys do have the power to nudge the market up or down with a single glib comment....

The US is a geopolitical Warren Buffet.
