[11:15] {RonS} lol...then again...it's out of business...
01[11:15] {@Threei} - Geopolitics, the Ukraine specifically, have taken center stage once again in today's markets. Stocks traded lower in Asia and Europe which resulted in a lower US open as the latest round of escalation weighed on sentiment. Yesterday reports were surfacing that Russian troops were on the ground in parts of Southern Ukraine helping separatists. President Poroshenko confirmed as much in a press conference noting the situation on the ground had changed significantly. Talks of another round of sanctions are starting to brew as tensions are rising.
