| October 04, 2007 | | Spread betting and contracts for differences on the U.S. stock market | Spread bets and CFDs on American markets should take into account that there is still a bit of a debate going regarding whether the credit crisis is over. Some feel that with global financial institutions writing down losses, that it is time to move forward. Some say that the worst of the the credit crisis has been priced into the U.S. stock market and other markets. But MarketWatch points out that not everyone thinks the credit crisis is over:
The debate is still underway among investors about whether this is over
or not. While there are signs that the credit crunch is easing, there

reduced appetite for junk bond deals and what appears to be a
permanently smaller commercial paper market, suggests the markets are
not yet out of the woods. | | |
