    New York Stock Exchange suspends trade after "glitch"

    2015-07-08 New York Stock Exchange suspends trade after glitch

    Hmm ..

    US markets were down before the halt in trading, which started just after 11:30am ET, as a fall in Chinese markets added to concerns about its impact on global economic growth.

    One trader on the NYSE floor, Mark Otto, of J Streicher & Co, told Reuters: "It's under control. We're just waiting for word. There's no sign of panic at all.

    "We're waiting to hear word on if there's going to be a reopening, and when it is or any more details."

    Meanwhile, the WSJ.com site and United Airlines reported technical difficulties on Wednesday.

    WSJ.com went down completely earlier in the day, but there was a partial recovery at about midday. A message on the website's homepage read: "WSJ.com is having technical difficulties. The full site will return shortly."

    United Airlines has also reported that a computer error has forced it to ground its flights in the US for the second time in recent weeks. The carrier blamed a "network connectivity issue" for the latest fault. ...

      2015-07-07 Stunned Obama Flees To Pentagon After Receiving Putin “War Order”

      Maybe it's just routine sabre-rattling exchanged before any major military exercises - But on the face of it this does not look good.

      2015-07-07 Stunned Obama Flees To Pentagon After Receiving Putin “War Order”

      The Ministry of Defense (MoD) is reporting today that this mornings “emergency activation” to immediate combat readiness status of the 102nd Military Base near Gyumri, Armenia (Caucasus region), is directly related to the 4 July “war order” issued by President Putin authorizing the sinking of the US Navy’s guided missile destroyer USS Porter (DDG-78) that just entered into the Black Sea on 5 July.

      According to this report, on 4 July, President Putin “communicated directly” with President Barack Obama outlining the “exact parameters” of his “war order” and further expressed the Federations “grave concerns” regarding the United States massive global war games that are currently underway, or due to start this month, that include, in part, Talisman Sabre 2015, Jade Helm 15 and Breeze 15.

      Of the greatest concern to the Federation regarding these massive US war moves, this report continues, is Breeze 15 that includes 30 ships and around 1,700 personnel from Greece, Bulgaria, Turkey as well as the US belonging to the Standing NATO Maritime Group 1 (SNMG1) and the Standing NATO Mine Countermeasures Group 2 (SNMCMG2) that began operations in the Black Sea on 3 July.

      And heightening these “grave concerns” even more, this report explains, was Greek Prime Minster Alexis Tsipras stating to President Putin last week that the Greek Navy contingent of NATO’s Breeze 15 war game had been refused permission by his government to participate in it due to that nation’s severe financial crisis, thus leading to fears the Obama regime was planning to use this “exercise” in a coup against that country and its democratically elected leaders. ...
