Don't count your eggs my friend. We've got the debt ceiling coming up in February, and boy will that be a show. Expect the next two months to be filled with political diatribes, vitriolic comments, and ultimately really happening (except the debt ceiling being raised in an 11th hour "compromise"). Then it's on to the next debacle (Iran/Isreal war? China/Japan conflict? Gun Control in the US?). Gotta love this 24/7 news cycle world we live in.

 

Stay tuned for more fuckery with the debt ceiling

All I've learned from this is that washington, and pretty much every politician, are the most inept, incapable,and moronic group of people that I have ever seen.

NOTHING has been achieved. We managed to avert the cuts and tax raises that we baked into legislation to force ourselves to do what needs to be done. Instead, we've raised taxes now, and we'll talk about spending cuts in the future. A total joke. This country will default on its debt in the next 20 years.

 

The term "Fiscal Cliff" is another reason why I hope Ben Bernanke goes away forever

I feel sick.

When a plumber from Hoboken tells you he has a good feeling about a reverse iron condor spread on the Japanese Yen, you really have no choice. If you don’t do it to him, somebody else surely will. -Eddie B.
 

Hi friends. I've just signed here in this forum. Agree with everyone tired with this subject and it will generate a great impact on Brazilian Market tomorrow. American debt ceiling and Europe situation are (both) the biggest points of concern here. Greetings from Brazil. Happy 2013 for you all.
