That was really a minimal problem, since the markets were closed, even if the friends did know, they wouldn't have been able to cash in on it with the advanced knowledge.

No matter. Either way, you would have missed out on it all, being face down unconscious on the bar in a pool of your own vomit.

Exactly what I am talking about, essentially flat.

Had the President elected to conduct the raid on Monday at 10 a.m. Eastern Time, there would have been huge gyrations in the averages.

I doubt the timing was the primary consideration though it may have been a secondary consideration. The point is that hopefully Iran does not have the ability to build nukes.

Yeah, if it opens like that then it could go either way but I don't think there will be any kind of huge sell-off as most of the chumps were flushed a couple months back.

Opened down 52 as expected. Seems to be headed up.

Yep, up 18 points now.

The best part is how they kept the Democrats in the dark prior to the action, thereby ensuring that there would be no treasonous leaks of operational information.

As long as it keeps the Democrats out of the loop and thereby protecting operational security, I'm good with that.

I know you hate him, but IDGAF.
