It's Water, Fire and Darkness - Thanks to Sandy

So, the Nifty was indeed waiting for the RBI credit policy to act as a trigger to break the range. It finally went below the lower end of the range at 5630 and closed well below it at 5597, almost 68 points in the red. Well, some people would argue that it could be because of Hurricane Sandy too. I don't deny the fact that Sandy might have had an effect but had that been the case, the market wouldn't have traded in the positive before the credit policy was made public. The mayhem started at 11.

But what about Sandy? Well, the NYSE was closed for the last two days because of Sandy and chances are it would be closed today too. How will the US markets react to this? How will the world markets react to this? How will the Indian markets react to this? It is said that when America sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold. What will happen to the world when America is "literally" drowning, burning and turning into darkness? Today, no charts for you, just some links where you can get some interesting tidbits about Sandy.
