why swine flu matters to stock market?

That's kind like there's no relationship between wind, horse and bull.
Do you agree with this? So bears cannot even find a better excuse to bash the market? I think GM going to bankruptcy is even better than this one.

GM's news is always under control of WS MM.


But WS did not expect Pig Flu yet..............

Why wall street needs to care about swine flu? The flu is not difficult to control at all.

This could be an answer, but the influence should be just in some sectors.

Also can be added --  no more cheap labor because of the possibility of closing border, disruptions in supply chain...... The list can be long. Many people don't realize how critical the transportation is to the entire economy.

If you are still trying to make sense out of this market, you are naive. These days, almost everything that makes sense doesn't work in this market.

However, when everybody feel swine flu is not a big deal, market will turn around quietly, as I pointed out this morning.

the point is not that swine flu is severe enough to make this turn, it's just a good excuse for MM to use if they choose to. It's like CITI's CEO and note. it's not that big, but it served its purpose. People doesn't care later, even if C goes to bankruptcy.
