Political Crisis and the Stock Markets -- George Bittlingmayer, a professor of business at UC Davis whose research interests include the effects of political uncertainty on investment and economic activity, can provide perspective on the economic fallout of major political events. He says Kennedy's assassination, Nixon's resignation and the Gulf War offer insight, but he adds that we've learned some other important lessons since those events.
