The US markets were weak in light holiday trade.
The 'fiscal cliff' is unlikely to be resolved until January.
The markets may weaken a little more, but I think we have seen enough for today.
Merry Christmas!
"The days are coming when men will go mad, and when they meet a man who has kept his senses, will rise up against him, saying, 'You are mad, because you are not like us.' And I said, 'What can get us through such snares?' And then I heard a voice saying to me — humility.” Saint Anthony the Great, Abbot of Colzim Egypt, 251-356 AD
