Explosions in White House. Markets Tumble.

Markets plummet in minutes after White House is attacked and Obama is injured.
Oh. It was a Twitter account hacking?
Never mind!

Just goes to show you how irrational the markets can be in the short term. 
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.
