Trouble for Markets?

CHICAGO (MarketWatch) - The U.S. dollar, Treasurys and American stocks could sell off if top White House aides are indicted on charges they leaked the identity of a CIA employee, analysts said Thursday. Speculation has mounted that formal charges could be announced Friday by special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald, the final day of a grand jury session. Karl Rove and I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby are the prime targets of Fitzgerald's investigation, press reports have said. Rove, a long-time political adviser to Bush, is deputy White House chief of staff. Libby is chief of staff for Vice President Dick Cheney.
