Genesis sure had it right (albeit a few decades early), this is a Land of (Fiscal) Confusion these days. Between the debt ceiling crap, the confusion over the US credit rating-S&P downgraded while Moody’s affirmed-the market’s plunge, and then the death of those 31 SEAL Team 6 members with their 7 Afghani pals, this was a crazy and wild week. Hopefully, things will start to look up as everyone has time to assess everything. But, in the meantime let me recap the week that was in my PF blogging experience…
