It's hard to believe only a week's time has transpired since the markets opened for trade on Monday.  Speaking of Monday, the markets are closed this Monday, what better time to start doing all those things you promised yourself you would do in 2015.

This is perhaps the most exciting week we've had in the markets since the announcement that Tim Giethner was going to run the Treasury and oh boy was that ever exciting.  There is no better way to maximize the affect of asset price moving events than to announce them on the day when every option and futures contract on the planet is set to expire.
