theory of the day

January 23rd, 2008 · No Comments

ok, now i don’t shit about the financial sector, well i suppose i might know more than some (i do listen to marketplace after all) but really i don’t get a lot of the mechanics of high finance. nevertheless, i put forth this theory: the traders on stock market trading floors play up to the camera when there is a ‘crash’ or ‘crisis’.

the papers are plastered with pics of all these middle aged men in colorful schmocks (is that spell it?) with their faces wracked in pain, head in hands, crumpled under the weight of the impending doom of recession.

jeebus, doesn’t this happen every fucking week? don’t these chumps make money on volume, not on the stock prices? (i’m making alot of this up….., no, really)

what do these guys do anyway, i thought all the exchanges were run by ebay now, or something–right?

freaks.
