"My local radio just said stock trading is going up because Rita isn't going to cause as much damage as initially feared."

NO is flooded again. The refinery's that were running in the gulf have been shut down. Who knows how many Oil and gas riggs will be destroyed. At least some refinery's are going to be flooded/ re flooded. All those companies in the evacuated area are shut down. That is a lot of people out of work for the moment. some cities in Texas are predicted to flood. Gas is going to go up up up!.

All of this and the Dow is barely down.

I would say there is some serious manipulation going on.

They were expected the Houston refineries to be pummelled....it doesnt appear that way.
