I was watching Fox Business today and Charlie Gaparino (sp) said he didn't think the market was fully appreciating the risks to the economy. I was thinking the same thing last night. I mean, Putin threatens the use of nuclear weapons, Ukraine is struggling to survive, inflation is out of control, and nearly 100 dollar a barrel oil is already occurring.

Maybe I'm just too pessimistic, but I see more risk than other traders on Wall Street. Is that because they are smarter than me or is it because they are younger and haven't experienced real threats or risk in their lives.

During the past 2 decades, every time there is some hardship or threat to our economy the Fed jumps in and starts pumping money into the economy. this is much of the reason we have 30 trillion in debt. I just don't see a safety net at this point.
