What Effect Will The News Of Osama Bin Laden’s Death Have On The Markets?

May 1st, 2011

This evening we heard President Obama announce the news that Osama Bin Laden had been killed in a U.S. lead attack on compound near Islamabad, Pakistan.  Apparently Bin Laden had been hiding in a mansion there near the capital city, and not in Pakistani tribal regions as some had thought.  While that news is certainly embarrassing for Pakistani security forces, the news certainly is very welcome to all freedom loving peoples across the world. People are celebrating in the streets in Washington, D.C., and across the country.

While the news of Bin Ladens death means that justice has finally been served in the global war on terror, and for the 9/11 families, one thing Im interested to see is the effect that the news of Bin Ladens death will have on the markets.

Im already reading news on the wires talking about how there will be some positive effects in the markets because of Bin Ladens death, while some other commodities markets like the oil markets may be more volatile in the short term.

The dollar rebounded from three-year lows and U.S. c

Sony’s got another security breach on its hands.

Sony says it “promptly shut down all servers related to SOE” when its investigators discovered the breach. The news comes hot on the heels of Sony’s refusal to testify before the House Energy and Commerce Committee about its Playstation Network fiasco. The company s

ING Direct Investing Review: ShareBuilder Renamed, Refocused And Simplified

April 28th, 2011

A couple of weeks ago I did a review of Betterment, a cool new super-simple investing platform that I had discovered. I have since signed up for an account, and am now investing a portion of my money with them. What I like about them is that they keep everything extremely simple for newer investors or average Joes, giving just a few options to choose from when investing. You just choose your stock/bond allocation, link your account, and start investing. You can even make it automatic every month and theyll re-balance your portfolio on a regular basis. Simple, and very accessible to new investors.

It seems like a lot of companies are realizing that new investors want to be able to invest, but sometimes theyre just intimidated by the number of options available to them when they sign up for a brokerage account, and they want things simplified.
