    Is anyone really surprised? Dow dropped over 3% on Friday so we are just reflecting that here.

    One of the first things I learnt about our stock market is that for the most part we are just pawns in the global economy and we follow the overseas lead 9 times out of 10.

    In other words - when they crash, we crash. Hope you're ready for it.

    I hadn't even bothered to play any stocks the last few weeks and i look today and see DOW 16370.
    Some people will be making a killing, it ain't me.

    Government has been using Jarryd Hayne as a distraction the whole him flying overseas to play NFL was a ploy by the Illuminati to distract people from the horrible state of the economy
