I don't think there were a ton of bets placed during this particular quarter, but it does cause some wacky moves,

I think the market has discounted a lot of the bad second-quarter chatter we're going to hear, and my guess is that conference calls going forward are going to be much more positive,

Not to be heartless, but this is very good for Wall Street, ... And I think that is why we are seeing this market take off in the early going.

I think the fact that we had this awful bombing ... and yet the market seems to be moving on, that it's starting to become sort of priced into the marketplace. We may get investors to get back in off the sidelines at some juncture as we start to get earnings reports for the quarter.

Journalism is not just a cause, it's also a wacky profession.

It is very much premature to say it is any particular cause.
