    Yep, market did the same thing when Egypt exploded. Of course, Libya has oil, but only produces like 2% of the world's oil. Markets will jitter around while all this stuff goes on. If it hits Saudia Arabia, it may get ugly, but it won't have anything to do with QE2.

    Then you've seen the market go up come down go way up come way back down, etc. Diversification is and has always been the key. Last year small caps did well looks like this year, at least so far, larger companies are doing better.

    I'll take the under.

    My wife works for a non-profit that advises investors. James Glassman was the speaker at their last conference. Good thing I wasn't there or she might've been fired - because I would've badgered the shit out of Glassman when he started taking questions.

    It has been a gloomy picture of the economy of the entire world. The reason is the food crisis which has been setting in for few years but now we can feel its impact on the world level.The agriculture sector has been ignored for too long and the consequences are there for the developing countries to suffered severe effects.

    The housing bubble is a perfect example of government interference in a market and the end result.
