    The stock market is rigged. Has been since the Reagan Administration.

    Why not read an economics publication for economic opinion rather than the right-wing-nut-house?

    On the one hand we have wolfgang asking for peoples opinions only to have him turn around and say sneering stuff like this:

    "What does "your view" have to do with reality?"

    On the one hand we have people giving opinions and explaining their opinions.
    On the other hand we have people with views like "I consider all goats are sheep".

    Actually it was bad performances by companies such as Google and Facebook. The primary driver of stock market fluctuations isn't political intrigue, but the bottom line. For pities sake, one would think Conservatives would understand this:

    What drives the stock market is greed and fear. Political shenanigans only have an effect when investors start to worry that the fall out will affect bottom lines. In this case the fear is driven by bad results from major companies.
