It will be interesting to see how the Asian markets open up in a couple of hours and the Dow Jones Futures are after today's events.—

Happy New Year's Day! Let's watch the Tokyo markets react to the latest foolishness of the Tea Party inspired GOPers in Congress. 7pm.—

Some clueless left-wing commentators and observers are telling their followers and viewers to “watch how the Asian markets react in a few hours” to the fiscal cliff machinations on Capitol Hill. But there’s a little problem. Asian markets are closed until Jan. 4 for the holidays. D’oh:
Why do these #FiscalCliff idiots keep talking about when Asian markets open – Japan & China markets are closed til Friday 4th—

Correction/update: Well, d’oh on us. Turns out a few Asian markets are open. Our apologies for the error.

@AliVelshi Global Currency Exchange Markets still appear inactive. I expected they would have opened an hour or more ago? What's up?—
