Hmmmm

There is no way you could not have seen this one coming.

Markets down passionately last night and today.

In the US Dow -1.41%, Nas -1.46%, S&P -1.19% and in Asia Nikkei -3.36%, Hang Seng -1.22%, Shanghai -0.90%, Sensex -0.61%, Singapore -0.47%

Tencent down -5.49%

Your only options at this stage are:  be active ( i.e. short or go for gold) or inactive (i.e. hold on, don't look at your positions and come back when its over.) 

Easy.  Don't despair.

Any other info this morning is immaterial, I’ll just stop here.

The only green you will see today will probably be from celebrations relating to St Patrick’s Day and HAR.

Crimea voted overwhelmingly with preliminary result of 93% to become part of Russia yesterday.  US, Europe & UK not willing to acknowledge results, sanctions as early as today to be enforced on Russia.

Asian share markets slipped on Wednesday, with investors still observing the Ukraine/Crimea crisis and ahead of a closely-watched Federal Reserve policy review later in the session. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan lost 0.2 percent, with relief over a perceived ebb in Ukrainian tensions replaced by caution over the Fed's policy review. Global markets have been buffeted in recent weeks by the crisis in Ukraine, slowing growth
