The rest of the candidates Rubio, Kasich, Bush, Carson, made little headway. As Dan Balz points out in the Washington Post the Republican primaries look like a contest between Cruz and Trump, both anti-establishment candidates, both tapping into grass roots anger at the Obama administration and at establishment Republicans.

Andrea Coombes provides views and assessment of the U.S. stock market in July 2014 of Joe Davis, chief economist at Vanguard Group, David Kelly, chief global strategist at J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., and Russel Kinnel, director of manager research at Morningstar. Joe Davis cautions against timing of the stock market from any surge in volatility, as timing has proven to be difficult. Kinnel says many sectors have performed well in one year and not so well in other years. Utilities, energy and health care have been more consistent in returns providing gains of 17%, 16% and 11% in 2014 respectively, compared to gains of 18%, 23% and 48% in 2013 , according to Morningstar.

About 171,000 refugees tried to cross the 250 mile stretch of ocean in rickety boats from Libyan ports into Italy in 2014, according to Frontex, the EU border agency . Refugees from Syria, Libya, Tunisia, and Eritrea are fleeing their homelands. A smuggling trade is carried out by tribes in Libya for these refugees, with one tribe making $60,000 a week. The tribes then use the money to buy weapons in the Libyan civil war. Migrant deaths at sea and inadequate rescue efforts are leading to a humanitarian crisis for Italy and the EU.
