  The Dow despite huge rallying still closed below 12,000 sad day.

  This is Jim Cramer "Mad Money" on Friday:

  He says the Dow is going to tank 1,000 to 2,000 points...what do you think?

  I love it when the economy goes to poop. Mo money, mo money, mo money. Yea, I know that's old.

  Recession proof business does good when the economy is good, but does GREAT when the economy does bad.

  sweeeeeeeeeet. It's gonna be a good year! Now it's just a matter of sucking it up a bit longer from the holidays.

  It's all good - a huge meteor is gonna hit earth on Monday and wipe us all out anyhoo (or at least a very near miss - there has been an almost total media blackout on this) ...

  Back on topic, it's interesting to watch the graphs on the UK-US markets:

  Asteroid 2007 TU24 has NASA concerned.
  
  Numerous solutions indicate an Earth impact.. Here is the latest regarding this unfolding catastophic situation Quote
  
  I believe that the greatest potential for danger will come in the form of TU24 being an asteroid whose plasma discharge with Earth may cause great chaos, even though it is hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.
  
  Plasma is the fourth state of matter, and one that we know little about. 99.999% of the universe consists of this plasma.
  
  Astronomers hold the theoretical assumption that bodies in space are electrically neutral. An electric comet or asteroid would strike at the foundations of the theoretical sciences. A few months ago, a surprise happened.
  
  On October 24th, 2007, Comet Holmes was the largest object in our solar system. 42% larger than our sun. For no apparent reason, it erupted from a very dim magnitude 17 to about magnitude 2.5 and its coma expanded to 2,000,000 km diameter.
  
  The unpredictable behavior from Comet Holmes can be explained by the breakdown of the plasma sheath that forms around a charged body in space. A plasma sheath insulates the charged body from the charge of the plasma outside it. Across the wall of the sheath, called the "double layer," there is a strong electric field. But when that wall breaks down, the result can be an explosive instability with accompanying electric discharge.
  
  Because of Comet Holmes just a few months ago, scientists are starting to seriously consider the 'electric universe', or plasma cosmology.
  
  Plasma Cosmology acknowledges the electrodynamic nature of all things in the universe. In this non-mechanical view, gavity and inertia are joined by other forces to create the universe we know (and don't know). Plasma is not electrically neutral, but is a superconductor that can carry electrical charges throughout the solar system.
  
  IT IS POSSIBLE that asteroid 2007 TU24 is negatively charged like Holmes and will react when it enters our magnetosphere in a few days.
  
  According to plasma cosmology, the difference in the electrical potential between Earth and TU24 will result in a plasma discharge between the two when TU24 reaches Earth's magnetosphere (as it is destined to do, from the calculations).
  
  The question is, is it charged like Comet Holmes?
  
  I believe if TU24 affects us, it will most likely be in this way. The chances of TU24 being a negatively-charged asteroid and hitting our magnetosheath is greater than the chances of a direct impact with Earth. Our magnetosheath extends a minimum of 65,000km in the direction of the sun, and even further out in the direction opposite the sun.

  That might effect the markets a bit.

  Help. The sky is falling!

  For the January 29th encounter, near Earth asteroid 2007 TU24 has no chance of hitting, or affecting, Earth.

  Not to mention that the total electric or magnetic charge on a body between 150 and 600 meters across will be negligible in relation to the Earth's own field.

  If you understand group consciousness you will now why this news might effect something like a markets.

  It only has a significant effect on market psychology if enough chuckleheads spout off the misinformation. And it is misinformation.
