Bsi 1,891.98 +80 +4.23%

Dr. King would have turned 80 yesterday and on Tuesday the nation will inaugurate its first African-American president.



Hardly seems like a coincidence.

WINNERS

Chocolate City 17.49 +3.57 +20.41%

The last time CC made the news was down in New Orleans, post-Katrina.



Now, though, the original Chocolate City is preparing to host as many as two million people who are in town for the inauguration.  Now if we can just do something about that whole, taxation without representation thing.

LOSERS

The Black President Comedy Bit .27 -6.94 -96.26%

A long-time staple of black comics everywhere.  RIP.
