finally, some good news:

billionaire owner whines:

Nassau County residents voted down Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano’s $400 million bond 57 percent to 43 percent. The Islanders' lease at the Nassau Coliseum expires following the 2014-15 season and owner Charles Wang has been adamant that the Islanders will not play in the current building once the agreement is up.

“I’m disappointed. To put it bluntly I’m heartbroken,” Wang said when he and Mangano met reporters Monday night. Wang was seconded by General Manager Garth Snow and Senior Advisor to the General Manager and Assistant Coach Doug Weight. Neither Wang nor Mangano took questions from the media.

“I feel that sound bites rule the day and not the facts,” Wang added

With 265 DOW points down on the day, it appears that the global markets are not impressed with the deal. SP took out the technically important June low of 1258. We have now a lower high and a lower low in the intermediate time frame, looking from the top in early May.
