As if we didn’t know this was coming, Italy was downgraded a notch tonight that took the futures down hard. We’ll see how things shape in the am but I suspect more selling will come as fear’s grip on Europe and the rest of the world clutches even tighter. Whether Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal or Ireland – there seems to be death spiral that has engulfed the eurozone. The uncertainties are numerous and these little surprises like downgrades cripple the confidence of investors and traders. Any momentum seems to be stunted in its tracks with every news item. The ridiculous becomes the absurd when one news item is spoken yet five minutes later is retracted.
