Over breakfast CNN is screaming out that we have just had the biggest single point loss in DOW history after the house blocks the bailout deal. The day is not over yet but so far we have surpassed 9/11 in market hesitancy. Over the television dance music blares, the siren horns of Barletta, the “Wow’s” [...]
