congress just last week passed a bill to increase government budget to 1.6 trillion or so.
If that didn't go through, the USA would have defaulted.
my view is that the latest slide in markets other than a healthy correction was to take away the importance of this bill.
again if bill failed the USA would have collapsed.
but not many have talked about this.
