Quote: New York (CNN Business)Markets took a wild ride on Monday, and the Dow briefly fell below 22,000, after Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's attempts to calm investors backfired. The Dow, which crossed 22,000 for the first time in September 2017, recovered slightly but was still about 200 points lower in late morning trading. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq fell. Mnuchin on Sunday released an unusual statement to say he had called the CEOs of the country's biggest banks. He said the executives assured him their banks are healthy and have "ample liquidity" to lend to consumers and businesses. "Markets continue to function properly," he said. We’ll all wait.

He called the heads of the largest fricking banks on Xmas eve and then announced to the world that everything was fine.
The treasury secretary does NOT do that because if he does investors start sweating and auto trading programs go into sell or die mode. But he did, they did, they did, and the dow lost 650 points in an hour or two. And then the asian markets opened and started emulating monty python sheep too ... Merry Christmas to you too. Chanti to my knowlege here is no option to limit-sell or buy on word of the treasury secretary.
facts I don't like.

Mnuchin’s attempt to calm markets backfires as Trump takes another shot at the Federal Reserve
LA Times Quote: An attempt by Treasury Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin to calm plunging financial markets backfired Monday, further rattling investors with new fears about whether major U.S. banks have enough cash on top of worries about interest rates, political instability in Washington and a slowing global economy.... “It seems like the government and [Trump’s] advisors can’t get out of their own way,” said Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Cresset Wealth Advisors in Chicago. “Already there’s a fair amount of uncertainty or lack of confidence in their ability to lead, and Mnuchin’s move just reinforced that concern.” ... Despite the stock market’s steep declines, there had been no concerns about whether banks had enough cash or that financial markets were not functioning normally. Mnuchin’s statement sent up red flags. “From all indications, Secretary Mnuchin was attempting to ease market concerns but very well did the exact opposite,” said Andrew Kositkun, foreign exchange analyst at City National Bank in Los Angeles. “While the stock market has sold off sharply, there wasn’t really any concerns about liquidity,” he said. “However, the markets are very much on edge, leaving some wondering if there is something Mnuchin knows that the markets don’t, especially given that the easier way to check on liquidity would be to call [Fed Chairman] Jay Powell.” ... If i were to tell you your house wasnt on fire and you were to react as though your house IS on fire, you could not hold me responsible for your over reaction.

Republicans, Don’t Fool Yourselves — Donald Trump Is in Serious Trouble
The freaking NATIONAL REVIEW!!! Best line: Quote: ... if you’re a campaign-finance lawyer, and a candidate asks your advice on how to buy the silence of a porn star and hide that payment entirely from the American people, your best response should be, “Have you considered not running for office?” Garuda.Chanti said: » Republicans, Don’t Fool Yourselves — Donald Trump Is in Serious Trouble The freaking NATIONAL REVIEW!!!

Wouldn't be surprised if the Bush's didn't also have some hanky panky going on and they were just better at hiding it.

I wish I could ignore the Kennedy's but they seem to be breeding at an alarming rate...I think there is only 10,000 Kennedy's left.

I don't really even care about it, I assume I'll just die at my desk, and it'll be a consolation prize for the wife and kids. I don't honestly believe I'll ever see it, so it's super hard to give a *** about. I'm going to go buy some powerball tickets at some point today.

Investing in lottery tickets is a good way to protect your future. I highly recommend it.

It's rare to hear "NPR" and "interesting" in the same sentence!
