TERROR ATTACK REPORTED IN BRUSSELS; MARKETS DIVE

Both retail and basic resources got lit up, weak throughout the day, only accentuated after reports out of Brussels that some lad ran about a train station screaming ‘allah akbar’, detonating himself in the process.

Markets were heavy from the morning, accelerating declines towards the end of the day — applying a brutal sort of punishment to sectors already in bear market territory. We are truly in a Tale of Two Cities market, where the best performers keep trucking ahead, making news highs, amidst turbulence and tumult in retail and oil and gas names.

On a separate note, Prodigy from Mobb Deep died today, apparently from sickle cell anemia. I actually read his biography many years ago and was delighted by his sordid tales, regarding the inane NYC rap scene. As a teenager, not knowing what good music was, he was quite popular in Brooklyn and around NYC.

RIP

    or maybe it was this Trump tweet:

    While I greatly appreciate the efforts of President Xi & China to help with North Korea, it has not worked out. At least I know China tried!

      At least they have the good sense to mount ACOG’s on top of their Scar’s.

    Good police work in Brussels and Paris yesterday. Two Muslim nuts with explosives and they are both neutralized, killing only themselves.
    Intelligence services should be able to roll up more folks and terror supplies with what they find.

    Everybody knows what follows after this – calls for more surveillance, more protection, more restrictions on freedom, more laws, more power and money to “intelligence” services, more cops, more guns for cops, and after that cycle then rinse repeat, bring in more moozlim rapefugees, which results in more terrorism, more deaths, …yadda yaddy yadda… Hegelian Dialectics

      This sounds vicious but we should post ISIS recruiting posters around the city:

      Help Wanted: Must Posses Explosive Personality, etc.

      Round them up and then cart them off for “ISIS training” and they were never heard from again. The end.
