Back from Euorpe

I usually manage to go to Europe when something important happens in the financial markets and this time I did it again with a little political intrigue to boot. I returned home last night so here's my first installment on what happened . . . . in case you missed any of it.

Not a day after I arrived in Paris to spend two nights with my niece and her boyfriend (Greg), did Eliott Spitzer get embarrassed and resigned as NY Governor. This was quite a timely event in that Greg had worked on Spitzer's campaign and been an aide to the incoming David Paterson.

What was to come over the next 10 days was the financial meltdown of Bear Stearns, Carlisle Capital and Wall Street.

another story tomorrow.
