Gee, guess the NYSE did not get the alert, dow up a 100 on the open. Follow the money, those who bet with it know the truth, those without it read the scare headlines.

F the media!

We should use this as a LESSON ON MEDIA BIAS

Show everyone you know how the media is running around like Chicken Little saying “The Economy is falling- it hit me on the head”

Then... watch and wait, for NOTHING TO HAPPEN
