An incredible experience, all the more poignant when we learnt of the chaos that hapened in the markets in the 12 hours following our visit.

Thursday
Hi. Well we have many entries and details to fill you in on. Not least our visit to the Chicago Stock Exchange on Thursday, where we had a tour and were even taken onto the trading Floor by a Rotarian. Something like 70,000 sq feet of organised chaos, it takes ten hours to clean up all the paper each day, there are approx 150 trades in 30th (1/3 )of a second and 2 billion trades per year $1000 trillion.
An incredible experience, all the more poignant when we learnt of the chaos that hapened in the markets in the 12 hours following our visit.
