From The Business Insider, May 25, 2010:

Good morning. Here's what you need to know:

• Asian markets fell significantly overnight due to increasing geopolitical fears associated with the Korean Peninsula. European markets are also down hard in early trading on similar news, as well as concerns over the Spanish banking system. U.S. futures are down ahead of today's trading day.

• Case-Shiller housing data is released at 9 AM EST. See the numbers as they are released live at The Money Game >

• Tensions are escalating on the Korean Peninsula as both North and South Korea prepare for war. The North has threatened to destroy the South's propaganda speakers at the DMZ, and is preparing its troops for war.

• The situation in Thailand has returned to calm for now, but the country is now charging former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra with terrorism for his relationship with the protest movement in the country. The fighting has left an official total of 88 dead. Click here for a primer on the Thai situation >

• Concerns over the Spanish banking sector have led to further weakness in the euro and European exchanges as the IMF called for swift consolidation of the country's banking sector. Over the weekend, Spanish bank CajaSur was bailed out and just yesterday several Spanish banks were partially merged. Here's why the Spanish economy is about to get gored >

• All of this uncertainty in Europe is leading to a difficult credit situation for the continent's banks where the cost of lending between them is rising. The main concern is dollar borrowing in the short term, which now costs European banks more than their Asian and Americas counterparts. Check out these 12 charts on the crisis in European banking >

• Credit is not just becoming tighter in Europe, but worldwide, as investors are now beginning to fear the threat of European debt contagion and a potential double-dip recession. U.S. government debt is now showing some signs of the distress.

• The CEO of AIA, the Asian division of AIG, has said he will quit if the company's takeover by the UK's Prudential goes through. He sees the deal as "unworkable."

• BP has come under further pressure this morning for the slow progress of its cleanup and attempts to stop the flow of oil coming out of the Deepwater Horizon leak. The company has offered $500 million to research the damages of the spill. See our latest update of where the oil slick is headed >

• Markets seem to be predicting an Australian interest rate cut as a result of a slowing economy brought down by a drag on the country's mining sector. The country, which was an early rate hiker, is now likely to cut rates.

• Bonus: Kim Kardashian has admitted to plastic surgery, but only a little botox. She has denied ever having her "nose done."

That Kardashian person I'd never heard of until a couple of months ago. Saw a picture of her on a market tabloid while in a check out line and for the life of me I have no idea what the hell I'm supposed to find so fascinating about her.

Not that I care mind you.

North and South Korea are in some serious sabre rattling right now. I really hope things settle down, the last thing the world needs is another major war.

I'm having trouble coming up with a single motive for NK to sink the SK warship. That honestly doesn't make sense.

The leader of North Korea is and has historically been an absolute nut job. He's not a well person, at all, in any sense. Looking for a reason for his actions is like trying to have a reasoned logical argument with a beligerent bipolar person who has rage issues.

Okay, that's one possibility. Certainly war with the south will only cost him though and he has to know that. Maybe he's got a nuke ready or Seoul he wants to use and doesn't care about 1000 cruise missiles taking out all his military installations, which is what will happen.

But who else would benefit from war? Would China want to destroy us financially? The only problem with that China holds about 1 trillion of US debt, so they'd be flushing that down the toilet.

This sounds strangely similar to the Gulf of Tonkin. What would the US gov gain from war?

I'm saying that if the war with North Korea got out of hand, China would have a means to control our aggression.

Why is North Korea so impoverished? Well, for starters they don't have the Banking Cabal running it.

Kind of like how Iran isn't under the thumb of the banking clan.

See a pattern here?

No, they really don't. They can threaten, it would hurt short term, ultimately we don't truly need them though, yet. Plus, they'd take themselves out. Don't overestimate their "power", it's a dual edged sword and they'd have to be convinced that suicide would be worth it on their part. They're pragmatists, that's not going to happen. They'll threaten, they'll pull back enough that it might hurt, but we still have all of our factories and food here on the mainland. Short term pain for us, long term middle finger to them.
