Of Markets and Hurricanes

Listening to NPR this week, which announces at the top of the news hour each morning the stock market risings and fallings, it was interesting and gratifying to see that both the DOW and NSADAQ went UP, UP, UP every single day. And not by a few tepid points.

Think that had anything to do with the Dem's Convention? It will be interesting to see what happens next week during the Republicans' fest. If the market plummets, it might be a predictor of how the vote will go in November.

Meanwhile, a hurricane is predicted to make landfall in Louisiana during that convention. It will be interesting to see how quickly the Bush Administration will respond this time. I hope the American populace won't be fooled again.
