    I know - imagin if the government suspended trading on all stock markets to prevent a crash! I mean companies place themselves in voluntary Trading Halts and Suspentions - I cant see why a panicing Government would not place a trading halt on an exchange in order to 'prevent disaster'. :)
    Would have to be a pretty f'd up world though.

    hard to keep up with the eurozone these days.

    BDR looks like they are progressing well in Brazil.

    Ahead of time and under budget - awesome plus points for managment
    I suspect BDR could represent a take over target. Some big players in South America

    The quote below is from ninemsn quoting skynews so I wouldn't count on it being reliable - time will tell I guess!

    Co-incidence perhaps, although it's certainly happened on a potentially highly volatile day - now where did I put that tinfoil hat! :lol:

    It's been just as volatile for ages, if not more, put away your tinfoil hat lol

    ASX hasn't been down like this for years and years, I'd say that is a pretty good record. Shiet happens.
