S&P downgrades US credit. Markets do nothing.

Posted: **August 5 11, 10:21 pm**

I'm a little uneasy about these credit agencies. Hopefully it's harmless

especially given this:

S&P officials notified the Treasury Department early Friday afternoon it was planning to downgrade the debt, a government official said, and the firm presented its report to the White House. S&P has previously warned such a downgrade might come if Washington didn't move to comprehensively tackle its long-term fiscal woes.

After two hours of analysis, Treasury officials discovered that S&P officials had miscalculated future deficit projections by close to $2 trillion. It immediately notified the company of the mistakes.

S&P officials later called administration officials back to say they agreed about the mistakes, though they didn't say whether it would affect the rating. White House officials remained waiting Friday evening to see what the company would do.

The US is an exception. The laws of nature do not apply to US. As in exceptionalism. Our economy only goes up baby!
