Stock Markets crushed on Republican win

U.S. Stocks Drop Most Since November

I'm not going to pretend to divine the motives of "the market" (there are other things happening today), but you know damn well that this would have been the story if the tables were reversed.

3. Again! I think he lost everything in the '87 crash.

Or maybe it was the dotcom thing.

6. Looks like the markets gave Republicans the kind of rally they usually do.

I remember reading last night how the markets (futures I suppose) had all turned north after the Brown win.

Don't bother to study history--this is the response the markets usually give Republicans.
