Happened about 11 times in the past 15 years, on average during these times markets have remained flat. In the month directly after the s&p index had gone up 2, 5 on average.... Don't panic

Simply been dollar strength,employment numbers in the states have been good , and the housing price index numbers last week were good. Our currency has been under pressure for weeks, the strike action gave it momentum.

Obama has to ask Congress if he can sleep with Michelle. Democracy gone overboard.

The funny thing is that there is NO WAY they can stop Obamacare, in fact Obamacare was rolled out Yesterday. This bill does not need government funding as of right now it is self sustaining (not perpetually mind you). So Obamacare is happening with or without the Republicans. This is simply the Tea baggers um I mean party stomping their little feet in protest. This is what happens when you have the one party in the senate and another in the house........
Actually flaunt, the last time this happened was in 1995-1996 for I believe 28 days? this was the longest shutdown in US history (a fight between clinton and gingrich) about mainly medicare........Two HUGE egomaniacs slugging it out at the cost of approximately $1 billion a day.
It does however happen more often than you think. The major issue in my mind is the debt ceiling which has now been reached. If they don't lift the ceiling then the US will default on some of their financial commitments......that is NOT good
Sleep well dear friends!
