I don’t think they’ll make the same mistake twice. Whenever the fully fleshed out plan is unveiled, I expect it will be to a positive market reaction.
The Obama Administration may be trying out a kinder, gentler style of foreign policy, but Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has already put North Korea on notice: test a long-range missile and they can forget about a better relation with the U.S. While in Japan, Clinton responded to North Korea’s assertion the nation has a [...]
And much like California, they may have to limit their employees from coming to work because they might not be able to meet payroll.
