Stock futures are up. Someone in Congress knows a deal is going to take place. Information already leaked to big players. Futures were down -207 on Dow earlier today and are now up +23. Insider trading taking place. These guys are really slick.

I wish I had that kind of knowledge.

Futures can get confusing immediately after the close.

And you are certainly correct to suspect DC insiders when it comes to insider trading.

God is in control.

Well to be honest, it is pretty much common sense to expect that SOME kind of ‘deal’ will be announced before midnight.

Most people do not understand that to cover their shorts from Friday people have to buy....which will make futures go up. If I had held my shorts from Friday to this morning with Congress back in town to try and make a last minute deal you darn tootin I would cover first thing.

They (Bronco's supporters) will go bat-sh!t

Yes, they will, but I'll bet they won't blame him. Nothing so far that has been his fault has stuck to him. They are so wedded to their messiah they will believe anything he tells them. This will somehow be George Bush's and the Republican's fault for trying to protect their rich friends at the expense of the poor and downtrodden. Bronco could set fire to the White House on live television and then blame it on the fat cat owners of the match company and his idiot throngs would join in in condemning the match manufacturer. These are evil, soulless, Godless, hollow husks of humans we are dealing with.

Notice how they disabled the comments for this video?

The idiots in charge were probably getting death threats.

So pathetic.

Well, something just happend. The market shot up just now. I guess we’ll get the news AFTER the insiders make their trades.

Can't happen, it's against the law you know :)

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Insiders already made trades to benefit. So-called fiscal cliff deal reached per news reports. The reversal in the futures told the story ahead of time. Media will never report this.

The parents of that young lady should be turned in for child abuse! Brainwashing a young lady like that .... makes my stomach turn.

Anybody with half a brain knew this was going to be a big drama queen kabuki dance with a predetermined kick the can deal at the last minute.
