Hong Kong's Hang Seng index, which opened two hours later, dropped by 4.5 percent.<br /><br /><br />That followed the worst sell-off in two years for U.S. stocks.

"The psychology of the crowd is coming back, so everybody wants to be out of these stocks.<br /><br />According to Von Pfeil, the selloff was because "reality has finally set in that things are just not going to get solved."<br /><br />But others saw the selloff as a buying opportunity, especially over the short-term.<br /><br />"In this kind of market that we're going through now, there will be a lot of volatility particularly on the upside, the rallies will be very intense, very short, and people will want to get in," Dodge Dorland, Chief Investment Officer at Landor & Fuest Capital Managers said. "They don't want to miss it because they still haven't given up the hope."<br /><br />Some analysts point the finger directly at Europe for the volatility. The European Central Bank held its benchmark interest rate at 1.5 percent on Thursday. It also reactivated two of its most potent anti-crisis measures, increasing liquidity to banks and purchasing eurozone bonds.</i><br /><br /><br />I'm staying with alfalfa futures.<br /><br />bAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-89330805886585698952011-08-04T22:52:13.143-04:002011-08-04T22:52:13.143-04:00And then there is this from our clever scientists ...And then there is this from our clever scientists --<br /><br /><b>REALLY BAD NEWS FOR THE FLIRTS O' THE WORLD</b><br /><br /><a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2022289/Do-flirts-age-faster-Link-overt-sexual-displays-ageing-scientists-bird-breeding-programme.html" rel="nofollow">Flirts Age Faster</a><br /><br />Like the preachers say, <i>be thou chaste, not chased</i><br /><br />:):)<br /><br />bAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-58693040760125385202011-08-04T22:15:44.126-04:002011-08-04T22:15:44.126-04:00carriers of conceal'd weapons

Obama Turns 50 Despite Republican Opposition
W....<br /><br /><b>Obama Turns 50 Despite Republican Opposition</b><br /><br /><i>WASHINGTON—After months of heated negotiations and failed attempts to achieve any kind of consensus, President Obama turned 50 years old Thursday, drawing strong criticism from Republicans in Congress. "With the host of problems this country is currently facing, the fact that our president is devoting time to the human process of aging is an affront to Americans everywhere," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who advocated a provision to keep Obama 49 at least through the fall of 2013. <br />"To move forward unilaterally and simply begin the next year of his life without bipartisan support—is that any way to lead a country?" <br /><br />According to White House officials, Obama attempted to work with Republicans right up until the Aug. 4 deadline, but was ultimately left with no choice except to turn a year older.</i><br /><br />The Onionator<br /><br />.Quirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00272168240606512672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-89480637114389763342011-08-04T20:17:07.851-04:002011-08-04T20:17:07.851-04:00The universe always rights itself eventually Rufus...The universe always rights itself eventually Rufus, now we be back in whack, where I is smarty, you the oaffy.<br /><br />:)<br /><br />bAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
