japan III
It will be interesting to see the decision making process that has occurred with the stakeholders of the Japanese nuclear plant crisis.
World Nuclear News website got overwhelmed last night after the last explosion at the Fukushima Daiichi 2. It has become one of the more objective places for news about the plants unlike the media sources. The objective sentiment as of 11AM EST is that higher than normal radiation has been released but still is considered a local incident (15 miles and less). The latest monitors have shown a substantial decrease of radiation, demonstrating successful containment.
The bottom line is that the Japanese have done an excellent job and have moved fast to contain the situation than many other countries (even the US) would have done.
However, the irrational masses will take it to a place where radiation exposure higher than one year's exposure is a sign of the end times.
Also, it would be good to watch the Asian markets. It wouldn't take much (real or imagined) to upset the Chinese market which would endanger the largest Asian economy.
