Man, this is scary sh..! Anyway I got the daily ACM news sent, looks like commodities in rising markets will take a beating, resulting it seems in Ruble weakness. This stuff has already killed people, reached the UK and mainland Europe, funny how Africa still seems to be free of it.

Looks like all those "worries" about swine flu have gone out the window, at least for now, after the release of some "magic numbers" in US data.
Nothing like a good dose of GREED to cure even the worst case of flu, I'd say...!

To be honest, swine flu didnt influence forex market as much as it did the stock market. Pharm. companies stocks went sky high with the news of millions of medicines sold all over the world to fight of the swine flu.

this phenomena appeared several time before, 1918, 1976, 1988, 1998, 2007 and 2009, but this time more weight is given, im too sure it will turn out to be a strategy for corrupted targets to benefit someone, i mean its not that big problem, it wont take long before they make it disappear.

edit: i wonder when will people stop trusting media..

I was sent this gem by a friend and would like to share it with you all. I hope that no one is offended by it, but in the off chance it does then admin please remove it.
