Could we please cut the crap with this ridiculous US election commentary. It's totally irrelevant who gets elected.

Nice work sherlock, these 'injections' are a pretty good indication that whoever said the economic fundamentals are 'strong' is blatantly lying.

ca1ic0cat, the Chinese have been financing it. When those investors retreat, then we'll see more bailouts by the fed or else bankruptcies.
