Yeah, I'm really so surprised that wall street would prefer a corrupt candidate they own over an unknown they can't easily control. Yep, really surprised. hahaha
Are you really this naive?

Market tanked 1% because Trump's chances of getting elected increased 5%. You do the math.

And turns out the whole thing is just more trumped up bullshit. Not even Hillary's emails.

MORE: FBI investigation into Clinton's private email server was never officially closed, law enforcement sources tell @jeffpeguescbs.

Update 2: Hmmmmm:

Pete Williams sources say in course of a separate investigation, FBI came across "a device." found emails there. but emails NOT from HRC

Let me get this straight, first you disputed that Trump would be bad for markets, now you seem to be accepting that he would be but it's a good thing.

The contortions you twist yourself into in order to avoid uncomfortable thoughts are amazing sometimes.

And as other people said, the idea that Trump couldn't be manipulated by Wall Street goes against basically everything we know about the guy. If there's one thing he is, it's easily manipulated.

Reading comprehension? This is exactly what every major news outlet says "PROBE REOPENED"

(Helllrpppp...Bernie Sanders save us!!!

Reading comprehension indeed. Tell me where in that statement it says the investigation is being reopened.
And explain to me what reading comprehension has to do with "what every major news outlet says".

Can she be president from prison?

Dream scenario: Clinton wins the election, the email thing turns real, and she resigns and Tim Kaine takes over as POTUS. All that coming to pass would have made this entire thing worth it while giving us a POTUS 1000000000x better than Clinton or Trump.

From what I can tell this comes from Chaffetz. Comey never said it was being reopened. Just reviewing some possibly pertinent emails. The faithful might be getting a little too worked up too soon. It would take something monumental to be found to lead anywhere.

The Donald told them that it was yuuuuge! today. So, in lockstep...

Yeah, all those people investing hundreds of billions know nothing, if only they were as smart as you! ;)
People who deal with every day investors hear the same thing. There is grave concerns about what Trump would mean for the market.

Are you kidding now or are you serious?

CNN "FBI Director James Comey told lawmakers Friday the bureau is reopening the investigation into Hillary Clinton's personal email server, a surprise development 11 days ahead of the election."

Foxn "the FBI has reopened its investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server while secretary of state after discovering new emails, in a stunning turn of events just days before the presidential election.

Reading the actual letter from the FBI here....I very well read this as "re-opened the investigation" <-- how else do you you read this? It's exactly what it is.

Is there any doubt about the fact that any emails uncovered after the FBI dropped its case, are fraudulent and probably of Russian origin?

Please don't tell me the FBI is this stupid.

The target of potential charges may not even be Clinton herself. There were many people involved, and any one of them touching classified material is a crime in and of itself. Hell, a charge for each copy and each individual piece of said material. Or even each instance of handling the same piece of information. Classified material is highly contagious as to the number of charges brought against "normal" folks who are not above the law.

just as a legal thought exercise, yes she can... while ironically a convict can't vote in many states, there's nothing legally stopping them from running for and being President even from a jail cell.

Again, nothing was "re-opened". The investigation never closed. Period. Full stop. Read more than the headlines sheeple.

Not one WikiLeaks email has been shown to be fraudulent. Show me where the Clinton Campaign or anyone else has given an example of one that was not 100% accurate?

Did the Russians acquire them? Maybe, maybe not. Just like in the case of Snowden, government transparency is a good thing. If they came from Russia then we should all think about the motives of that, but then don't discount the truth that was laid before us either. Willful blinders due to the (supposed) messenger is ignorance.

Try to follow along. I responded to Vic's post: "These idiots don't get just how bad Trump would be for the markets.". So Vic thinks he's the brilliant one, while everyone else investing is an idiot. Obviously wall street prefers someone they own to someone they don't. Whether that's good or bad for the market remains to be seen.

Uncomfortable thoughts? Like what?

"Appear to be pertinent" to the email probe [...]"
"[...] in connection with an unrelated case".

According to sources "not related to Wikileaks or the Clinton Foundation"

"These emails did not come from the private email server, and are from a device that is not Clinton's."

Your guess is as good as mine...

Ok well in that case there was a significant enough development to warrant a statement such as this. Something did happen. Whether that is something that was an email release, something new they found, their hands being forced due to internal insurrection so to speak, blackmail from WikiLeaks or someone else to do their job or they release the additional emails for them, etc we don't know. What we do know is they don't do something like this a week before a presidential election unless there was something significant going on.

Hopefully it results in charges and Obama pardons her, that will end congresses ability to have bullshit investigations about her.

You have gone off the rails lol

All you can think about is protecting somebody under indictment from Republicans in congress. Damn the system of justice!
