Hi Pic...
Have to say while I like the water theory... perhaps even agree with the principal, most of the 'nasties' out there are computer driven nowadays, especially the best of the Hedgies and long term market strategies. Dunno bout you, but no computers I know really contain much water, so their manipulations (taught by us water brains) are likely unaffected by the tides...
Even so... your correct in saying that markets don't like the Obama show... neither do huge profit driven pharmaceutical companies nor the health industry which sucked all the best brains out of Canada the past five decades. Personally, I can't wait till you have nationalised care.
Interestingly, they are saying the BoC has basically signalled the end of the recession today. Hmmm... yah OK, final throws of 'old capitalism' catches it's 10th and final breath. Change still coming, just a matter of time and patience.
