SUPERCOMMITTEE, EUROPE, and other big problems for the markets

This week I want to give credit where credit is due. One thing that Washington does really well, is they know how to name things, have you noticed that? Remember these names? The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, Shovel Ready Jobs, or my favorite, "Cash for Clunkers" remember that one?

Now comes the SUPERCOMMITTEE, it's not just a committee, it's a SUPERCOMMITTEE with no space. I keep thinking to myself, what is a SUPERCOMMITTEE, how is it different from a committee? In fact, I was so intrigued that I looked up SUPERCOMMITTEE in the dictionary, the word doesn't even exist. Like a lot of things in Washington these days, it's all about smoke and mirrors, followed by no substance.

On the 23rd of this month, just before Thanksgiving, the so-called SUPERCOMMITTEE is going to come out with their recommendations, it's not going to happen. Chances are, the report/recommendations will be delayed until the following week. If anyone's good at kicking the can down the road, it's Washington.

Let me begin by thanking everyone who watched our show last night at 5 PM. Jeremy and I had a great time and we covered many of the markets that are moving today. If you did not see the show, you can watch it here.

The overall market action yesterday was not good with the warning from FITCH about European bank losses. The bank stocks were a disaster and appear as though they are anticipating further problems in Europe.
