Stock market speculation?

Debt ceiling bill has officially passed through. Still a lot of tension regarding where the budget cuts will hit and what amounts. I'll be watching the stock market today to see what the knee-jerk reaction is.

EDIT: Already spiking up. Look to see what happens on August 2nd, 2011 from 1:00PM (eastern time) and on. A lot of fear regarding imminent melt down has been resolved but there is still the possibility of a downgrade from Moody's and a likely downgrade from S&P (they've stated a $4 trillion budget cut would be required for the US gov't to maintain its AAA rating).

Whether or not the increase will sustain, continue to increase, or resume decreasing is honestly a crapshoot in my mind.
