lol. you dont have to worry about the hadron collider that they are firing this week at all. if anything really bad happens then it will likely instantly wipe out the solar system or something like that.

so all life on earth will be instantly switched off, so dont worry about it!

15% downmove if the collider spawns black holes..lol :D

The London Stock exchange would be down for record time = ETERNITY

<<Scientists hope for surprises in Big Bang experiment
Mon Sep 8, 2008 5:13pm EDT

By Robert Evans

GENEVA (Reuters) - Scientists involved in a historic "Big Bang" experiment to begin this week hope it will turn up many surprises about the universe and its origins -- but reject suggestions it will bring the end of the world.

And Robert Aymar, the French physicist who heads the CERN research centre, predicted that discoveries to emerge from his organization's 6.4 billion euro ($9.2 billion) project would spark major advances for human society.

"If some of what we expect to find does not turn up, and things we did not foresee do, that will be even more stimulating because it means that we understand less than we thought about nature," said British physicist Brian Cox.>>

basically, nobody has a clue what's gonna happen. if this micro big bang takes out switzerland, we could get 15% drop right there and then.
They don't really expect to extract a single watt of electricity of this investment.

This is just Keynesianisn, plain and simple.

The europeans frown upon military kynesianism, and they confuse charity -which in the long run causes more economic problems-, with Keynesianism.

This is about the only thing Europeans may do to try to save their troubled economies.
 
I think Keynesianisn economics has done pretty well for the vast majority of people. We'll never know because we only get to go down one path but I know me and those around me are living better than the 'rich' did 100 years ago.
 
the supercollider is bringing the markets down. spy -3% just today and this is before the giant mofo is switched on!

by the way, they switch the beast on tonight (Wed morning in europe).
 
tomorrow is 7 years since 911. note that number 7 is significant in islamic culture.

"Religious Significance
The number seven is a key symbol in many Muslim cultural productions, both secular and religious, including art, architecture, folklore, literature, and ritual practices. There are approximately twenty-five references made to the number seven in the Qur'an the sacred text of Muslims. These references usually concern the seven heavens, the seven periods of creation, seven groups of things, or seven individuals, such as the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus"

Last week smelled funny to me. Even though we had several nice +day in several major sectors, those rallies felt weak. It felt to me that there were no "rigor" in the advances. I am thinking that the smart money was dumping into the hands the dumb money.

whatever the solution about LEH this sunday, it may not be enough. next week we could easily see a few really nasty market drops as the trapped naive buyers from last week shed their shares.

The market is shaky and October is just a bad month for stocks. Remember 1987? Anyone? Beuller?

I think we could easily drop 15% before October is over.


That's one hell of a prediction, bud! You're not one of them evanjellyquists, are you?
