European policy makers unveil $962 Billion Dollar financial package. The Euro is getting a boost which is being described as "shock and awe in 3D". These words are not normally used when describing finance and economics, but in this case, the words describe the overwhelming financial boost which is intended to stabilize markets.
Markets across the world bounced on the news.
Shanghai was up 0.39%. Nikkei 225 was up 1.6%. Hang Seng Index jumped 2.54%. TSEC was up 1.29%. FTSE 100 was up 4.90%. CAC 40 was up 8.24%. S&P/ASX 200 was up 2.66%. BSE Sensex was up 3.35%.
Although many investors were shocked at last week's free fall, U.S. Stock Markets NASDAQ and NYSE should be looking at a similar lift from the EU trillion dollar bailout. The concern over programmed trading will remain an issue for some investors who claim the markets are fully rigged and manipulated by the investment banks.
If that is the case, then this is probably a good time to make money. They wouldn't allow another disaster like last week. It would be too discouraging for investors and the smart money would go away for a while.
The Euro was up 2.348% on the news, a significant bounce from the past trend.
S&P 500 futures rose 51.7 points to 1,158.60 and Nasdaq 100 futures jumped 84.75 points to 1,933.20. Futures on the Dow Jones Industrial Average soared 394 points.
