Market Shrugs Off Reports of Gunfire on Capitol Hill

Market Shrugs Off Reports of Gunfire on Capitol Hill

Published May 26th, 2006 in Sentiment Tags: capitol hill, gunfire, sentiment.

Does it strike anyone else as interesting that the news of reported gunfire on Capitol Hill and a lockdown in effect has been totally shrugged off by the market?

This is the same market that would easily get spooked by possible birdflu transmissions or terrorism rumours, etc. Of course, we’ll have to wait and see how the market closes but as of now it is remarkable:

Update: A very strong close at (almost) the high of the day - 1280.
