Ty'Sheoma Bethea had a really big night on Tuesday. The young girl was invited by President Obama to sit beside the first lady during his speech to Congress in prime time for big ratings numbers on Tuesday night. The speech was the usual Obama fare but so far on Wednesday the market seems unimpressed. Another that seems to have some serious reservations in Robert Byrd, the senior US Senator from West Virginia and according to a report from Politico, Byrd claims Obama is in power grab.

U.S. stocks fell on Wednesday as investors found little new in a major speech by U.S. President Barack Obama on how he planned to stabilize the economy, while gloomy home sales data weighed on the market.
