Today, the headlines are not that great for the world or US.
The market has only been open an hour and the DOW is already down 391 points as of 10:30AM EST.
I still find it hard to believe that 30 service members were killed in a single, seemingly lucky shot incident in Afghanistan.
Of course there was the downgrade of American bonds by S&P from AAA to AA+ (which in the grand scheme of things is not a junk bond).
This report from CNBC cites incidents of unrest all around the world.
President Obama's name is mentioned in nearly every article, and I can only imagine how he feels right now. Apparently his approval ratings are falling too. I assume he is in a dark place about it all and therefore needs our prayers.
