5 Things that Grabbed my Attention

2. HangSeng Tech Index surged 6% yesterday....ASIA Tech Tigers ETF is set to make a mighty comeback. BUY last sale $7.52

3. India is banning exports of RICE....We will see shortages and price spikes in other countries as India accounts for 40% of the world's total exports.

4. The coming Auto Loan crisis in the USA is going to be a doozey....repossessions are beginning to show as these higher interest rates bite.

5. Eurozone banks saw a record drop in company loan demand...Looks like CEOs are battening down the hatches.
