Market Forces: Scenesters Trigger Sell Off

Any market analyst with a whiff of sense (and Cityfile) knows, that we can blame this whole market shitstorm on four things—Simon Hammerstein, Arden Wohl, Derek Blasberg, and Amanda Hearst. They're also responsible for Sarah Palin, but that was a total accident. See if DowJones ever lets anyone with a headband near that closing bell ever again. (Cityfile)
