Be ready for 5% or more loss today. Pay attention to crude oil price.

Thanks again to the US tea party financial terrorists who started this whole market slide by taking the US debt to near default. The news today is the same as before but the tea party terrorists dented confidence in the US economy and now investors are punishing the tea party actions.

Honestly, republicans screw up everything they touch. Its a tradition now.

Tea Party? How about massive deficits, job killing federal programs, and business who don't want to invest any money because they have no idea how Obamacare is going to effect them? To blame this on the tea party is to clearly ignore economics and the impact of federal spending programs on the free market.

Um hey Zurcroniumm the latest analysis is that the tea party is too small to exert the kind of influence you are talking about. As an American and a registered Democrat I am ashamed to say we have held the reins of power pretty much since Jan of 07 but we have royally screwed things up.

You cannot blame Obama for this.

The market is paying attention to a financial exposure to Euro debt crisis, 200 days moving average chart (technical) is broken and the global economy is heading to a recession.

I still find incredible that some people believe the economy is something magic on which we have no control over. The people controlling the economy are trying whatever they can so save their fortune even if it is about destroying entire economies, jobs and savings of the common people. If the governments are not playing in favors of the puppet masters, they make them pay.

"fears of U.S. recession"

The U.S. slipping into aother recession already? How could this be? Why... oh wait, I forgot - the Republicans have been in control of the House of Representatives since January, thus screwing up the recovery, lol.

No wonder the Nikkei is down. The US economy in the toilet and Japan is screwed due to this and Fukushima. This will not end well. I predict Great Depression 2.0 and it will be much, much worse than the original.

Financial professionals do not use a "D" word. Instead they call it as a double digit recession. FYI
