No biggie. Everyone gets it wrong once in awhile.

I used to work in banking in New York City. The traders always got the news first. I would call home with earth shaking news that wasn't confirmed until hours later.

I always say when I see rumors with far reaching consequences to look at the market. If it goes up 300 points in hours you know we got Osama. 200 points and we got Zarqawi. A Hillary arrest - priceless. Oh well.
