Very good board this,thankyou.The DAX shook yesterday as a result of the "explosion" near a nuclear facility in Iran.Brought it home to me how vulnerable the stock markets still are to political events:i.e. Bush and Condoleeza's ambitions to converting the rest of the world to their way of thinking.The Tsunamis had little effect on the market,we have become increasingly accustomed to carnage and horror in the last few years,but have still to experience the worst IMO.After the good Dec.-Feb. rally I expect a tumble.Hope I'm proved wrong!!!Ethel
