As to the OP, I don’t have a problem with reporting the financials along with other coverage in the news of the bombing. It is a tangible component of events like this. Speculating on the speculation seems a bit silly, though.
No, I know how the stock market works; I’m saying that some of the people on the ground speculating got it wrong.
Please, I’m not going to argue Capitalism 101 with you. I’m telling you the people who work stocks are reactionary, as all good amoral money people are trained. That’s not the point.
They got this one wrong, and they generally react too quickly to things whose real-life consequences aren’t actually felt till much later, if at all. Their premature ejaculations leave the customer unsatisfied.
