Jeremy Roenick:He played for both – Chicago Blackhawks and Philadelphia Flyers – but Jeremy Roenick refused to pick his favorite in the Stanley Cup.

“I love both cities,” said JR Canadian press. “The fans in both cities are literally treated me like their own son. I can not root against them or any of them. Again, I work for NBC, so I should be neutral.”

Nevertheless, speaking in Chicago, he offered little analysis of these two cities.

“The fans, I think they are a little more lenient here – Philly they will run you out of the city,” said Roenick. “I think if you go to the night life, Chicago is better. If you’re going to go food, I would say Philly, probably better. Philly is one of the best food cities I’ve ever been in.

Chicago a little better than people. Women? Chicago beautiful women. “Yes, it does not interfere with anyone.

South Korean Ship Sinking

South Korean Ship Sinking:Gold futures leapt while stock markets and Treasury yields fell after South Korea reported a naval ship sank off the island of Baengnyeong in the West Sea, near the border with North Korea.

“This is really all about the variable that we call the geopolitical; it’s about Korea,” said Peter Kenny, a managing director in institutional Sales at Knight Equity Markets LP in Jersey City, New Jersey. “It’s taken some of the euphoria out of the market.”

Canadian stocks were also down. The S & P / TSX Composite Index decreased 27.41 points, or 0.2%, to 11,930.70 at 1:34 pm in Toronto. It advanced as much as 0.7% earlier.

“There’s some Korean tension going on right now with a ship that went down; that’s what the market is reacting to,” said Barry Schwartz, who helps manage C $ 340 million as a money manager at Baskin Financial Services Inc.. in Toronto. “The market is looking for an excuse to sell off, and we got an excuse today.”

The two-year Treasury note yields fell on speculation investors are seeking refuge in government securities on the reported sinking.

A ship with crew on board was sinking off the island of Baengnyeong in the West Sea, near the border with North Korea, a presidential office official said, declining to be identified.
