Obama urges debt-ceiling compromise by Tuesday
WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama on Friday morning urged congressional Republicans and Democrats to compromise on a measure to lift the debt ceiling and cut the deficit by Tuesday. " There are plenty of ways out of this mess but we are almost out of time," Obama said, as the Senate planned to move forward with its own bill and House Republicans scrambled to shore up support for their own. The Treasury says the debt limit needs to be raised by Aug. 2 or the U.S. government won't be able to pay bills.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 100+ points early Friday, and stocks were on track to post their worst weekly losses in nearly a year after data showed meager growth in the economy and debt deal deadlock kept investors nervous...Yahoo finance
like Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid  said:" the time has come to make a decision" and for investor' decision next week will be play, run, wait/hold or show hand...???
it's going to get worst before it starts to get better, sound familiar huh.....
master gaecia.. i think even if today the US closes very red.. as long as over the weekend they somehow manage to solve the debt prob..
monday might not be cheap
but if they dont manage to solve the debt ceiling.. even if the US closes very green.. monday will be cheap

WASHINGTON -- Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid plans to
bring a bill to raise the debt ceiling and cut the deficit to the
Senate floor on Friday. Reid said he can't wait any longer for House
Republicans to act on their own bill, which stalled in the House
Thursday night. The Treasury says the debt ceiling needs to be raised by
Aug. 2 or the U.S. won't be able to pay its bills. " The time has come
to make a decision," Reid said.
Old time 'economic cycles' don't exist no more in this
              new era of unprecedented US 'debt consciousness'... 

 
looks like wall street big bears are massing tonight  

European markets are now pengsan big time...
      Dow futures are even more pengsan...
                Ominous signs for the weeks ahead?... 

hahaha thats mean more opera for me .....
Raising the debt ceiling by executive order could provoke impeachment
The U.S. Constitution clearly sets out the functions and authorities of the three branches of government. Article 1, Section 8 establishes the powers reserved to Congress. Included among the powers are:
" The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States...to borrow money on the credit of the United States..."
Congress alone has the legal authority to extend the borrowing authority of the federal government. If the president chose to raise the debt limit on his own by use of executive order he would be guilty of exceeding the constitutional powers of the executive branch and of usurping the powers reserved to Congress.
More entertainment and fun .... thanks risktaker
Cheer
 
 
If all else fail :)
President Barack Obama can invoke the 14th amendment to hike the debt ceiling unilaterally as a last resort to prevent a government default
The 14th amendment states that the " the validity of the public debt … shall not be questioned" and many are suggesting it may empower the president to raise the debt ceiling without congressional input.
