Interplanetary Investing

Morgan Stanley just put up an article outlining how space could be the next trillion dollar industry.

It'd be cool to see the opportunities in commodities (ASTEROID MINING HELLO????) as well as traditional business investments. If space tourism is going to blow up like our pal Elon says it will then we'll soon see the expansion of private sector interplanetary space travel, and private businesses. Give it a few decades we may even see industries like entertainment and retail popping up (Disneyland on Mars anyone?).

Will we see a Mars-Earth Stock Exchange (MESE, I'm coining that now) popping up within the century? What's the outlook on interplanetary investment opportunities?
