Gold down as a result, as Gold is being sold to cover Margin Calls.
It’s so great we have a Kenyan in office.
Who exports machine-guns to drug-dealers.
And trashes the economy.

I could venture a guess, but my opinion is not to be trusted, since I do not support the zer0. The winners thus far have been selected by the zer0 administration, not the market .... imho
Wow...obama must be thrilled. Dow’s down 342 at 1:46 pm.
Thanks to everyone who terrified Cemex (CX) holders today. I am sooooo grateful. You will never know how much. :)
