Armenia,

They default and those holding the loans have a major problem.

BoA downgraded a notch,

ADP comes out on employment figures at 8:15 Eastern Time this AM.

Probably right on that. Hungary potential problem likewise.

We may well have another problem, after they review 100 BILLION for possible downgrades,

Hungary is more worrisome than Armenia.

I agree.

Just hitting the news that " BO change you can hope for" has the SEC increasing trading transaction fees to the tune of a 500 Percent increase Starting April 1st. Wait until that spreads the next few days.

Also heard, if I heard right, that GS and other traders are going to cough up 70 or 90 Billion for front running on options trades. Waiting to see the full details. They allegedly steal, we bail them out, and then they pay us with our money.

It just keeps getting better by the day.

ROMAINIA delegates of the gov, banks, economists, etc... arrived in Washington DC yesterday to negotiate handouts of Billions at the IMF banks.

It's been quiet... don;t worry the American people will front the money.

DiFazio is the guy behind this, I guess? Once again, Stuart Varnish on Fox Business just did a report on this. I caught the tail end of it.

I must say, that DiFazio guy shocked me when Stuart said (paraphrasing) "you're going to punish the small investor with this so they won't want to invest"

DiFazio replied - in what came off as a VERY smart assed tone - "So what are you gonna do with your money then? PUT IT IN A BANK?"

OMG. That was pretty brazen of that...jerk.

No kidding. I'd like to see the strings attached to that deal. Halliburton will probably have a no-bid deal to do the work.
