The stock market has decided that Obama will be reelected! And the indices go up like a bottle rocket!
But wait! There's more!
Just before noon today, the stock market exploded higher on no obvious news.That's Business Insider -- two web sites in one!
There were some rumors that Mitt Romney had opened up a major lead in OhioThe Wall Street Journals' Paul Vigna thinks the rumor was started by a report that came from the Cincinnati Inquirer that put Romney ahead by 92,000 votes.However, that report has been taken down and replaced with this message:A Cincinnati.com front-page link to a chart with dummy data, created as a design template for election results, was inadvertently posted early Tuesday morning.It purported to show early voting totals in Ohio counties.
