The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged almost 700 points on the market open in some of the most extreme volatilty yet seen. Prices have since rallied back to even, and a little bit of green, due no doubt to wild swings.
President Bush will be speaking this morning most likely to serve up a few more meaningless platitudes.
Intraday swings mean little if we judge by what has happened so far this week.
It will be all about the last hour of trading.
“Thus, it should be understood that when pro-US figures use the term, 'rules-based international order,' they are not referring to anything analogous to the rule of law. Quite the opposite, they are using Orwellian language to describe a system in which essentially no rules can be established and/or observed, given that the dominant state has the prerogative to violate and/or rewrite “rules” at its whim.” Aaron Good, American Exception
