Cramer still pushing "buy the dip".  This con man is just saying that it worked so many times before, why not now?  Why not again?

Sugar, coffee and nickel and copper metal along with oil all magically having production shortages or other cover stories that will explain the higher prices that everyone knows is coming.  In other words, excuses so that we don't blame the federal reserve.

Target fires Canadian operations chief.  They didn't even give him the courtesy of letting him "resign to spend more time with his family".  It's going to get nasty folks.

The EU charges JP Morgan and others with rigging markets, expect big fines (back door taxation) to be the result.

Vatican bank is just as corrupt as any other.  At the end of the day, a bank is a bank.
