Good day. My beloved Cardinals are having a rough go of it lately. The injuries are piling up, and some sloppy play, which drives me crazy, has contributed.

Good day. We made it through another Monday without too much damage in the currency markets. You know things are getting pretty rough in the currency markets when we consider an average drop of just over 1% in the currencies “not too bad.” World Markets investors can’t say they weren’t warned we would see some tough times over the first half of the year (see more on this subject in the “Then there was this” section).
