Really? I hadn't thought of that. <Perhaps the sun is just a bubble, and its about to pop?? > It does look like a superheated cauldron when it gets on the boil with sun-spots. Meanwhile, another day and no more sun-spots. Your stock market theory looks reasonable. Maybe the lack of sun-spots causes markets to decline. There's a lot of electromagnetism involved and human minds run on electromagnetism too, with voltages all over our brains. The time to buy will obviously be when there's a good flurry of sun-spots and we can say that the sun is heating up again. I'll check for correlation with sun-spot declines and stock market movements down. Mqurice

Neo you are right that it is bubble like and that it will pop. Rumour has it that it won't be for a long time yet. "Long" meaning long after the next few glaciations. Since we are not yet harming the sun with our anthropogenic activities, we don't need to worry about it. But on the other hand, we do have that new magnetic tunneling to Earth and with all the cars running around, that could well be upsetting the magnetic fields which control the fusion reaction on the sun. By disrupting our end of the magnetic tunnel we could cause that popping you mentioned. Meanwhile, the latest sun-spot cycle is a bit of a fizzer so far. One decent sun spot a couple of weeks ago and it has to have a lie down. sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov Admittedly it's early days in the cycle so calling the Return of the Ice Age is a bit premature. But it's certainly chilly in NZ. Today we have an election and there's a good chance that the environmentalist maniacs are going to be evicted with their ridiculous Emissions Trading Scam and other foolishness. For some reason, the election doesn't seem to be as keenly followed around the world as Barack's ascent to Oneship. Mqurice
