Buy Bin Laden, Sell Hussein
The stock market has started to rebound on reports that the U.S. and Pakistan are close to capturing Osama Bin Laden.
"It's all Bin Laden," said Matthew Johnson, managing director of trading at Lehman Brothers. "The market is reacting to the fact that they are coming close to capturing someone we thought was dead."
Well, I never believed he was dead. So if they capture him, I expect profuse apologies from those who made fun of people who didn't think he was dead. So there.
