Black Monday: Nuclear Meltdown in Japan

A former adviser on radiation to the UK government, Dr Christopher Busby, has told the BBC the situation at the nuclear plants is extremely serious. "Particularly concerning is the [Fukushima] number three reactor which I understand is in trouble now, because... it runs on a different sort of fuel; it doesn't run on uranium, it runs on a mixed uranium plutonium fuel, and plutonium is an extremely serious hazard so if this stuff comes out then it's going to make what's happened so far, in terms of the tsunami damage, look a little bit like an entrée to the real course."
 
Quote from learner2007:

The Japanese PM just said on TV that the explosion did not damage the reactor and there was no leak. Details are hard for me to explain in English but it looks as though we can rest easy for now.

My Japanese sources are very skeptical of these claims, FWIW.

Black Monday does not look too black too me. FX opens pretty flat and calm. Same with metals.

Wow! You're right. The FX open looks like any other Monday open. Not bad for a biblical Earthquake/Tsunami/& Multiple Nuclear Meltdowns.

lets see.. 34 mil eoplel 130 miles from reactors..I wonder if they will manage the real truth of the potential threat?
