Where do rating agencies get their power from?

They obviously have some very powerfull friends.

Who keeps them out of the wind and why is anyone still listening to their dribble?
 
From Wall Street and congress. Why do you think a stock falls 20% before the rateings downgrade.

But the way the financial media spins it is, THE MARKET KNEW AHEAD OF TIME, HUMMMMMMM.

The market is aways right!, the market was priceing in the rateings downgrade.

But what really happened, was someone was tipped off and got the hell out before the downgrade.
