This is why you do not sell stocks in good American corporations (wtf is he talking about?). I am talking about the fact you cannot predict when the news will turn positive and the saluatory ramp in the market. We hear the numnuts talking about this economic indicator or that, but the fact is this market is all about winners and losers coming out of the 9-11 attacks. Good luck and good investing.

And this is why the USA can deficit spend like no other nation on earth. We deficit spend and it's like we are calling in economic chips. Do not doubt for a second these arrests were not the direct result of American taxpayer support of the Pakistani military apparatus. I hate to sound premautely gleeful, but that part of the world is all about winners and losers. The USA has always had representation in Pakistan's military because we train their officers (in Ft. Bliss among other places). But, and a very important but, our prior administrations (I blame Bush one as much as Clinton) let the garden go to seed. My dad was supervising (at the battalion level) Paki officer army training back in the 60's. And they kept close tabs on our welcome guests. (they were porn fiends). But who an I to judge :). Good work and bravo to our Pakistani friends (we need all we can muster).
