The indices indicate a situation in which the markets haven't made up their mind yet whether to hold an afterparty or face that the overhang will already be bad enough as it is.DISCLAIMER: the author of the above written texts does not warrant or assume any legal liability or responsibility for any offence and insult; disrespect, arrogance and related forms of demeaning behaviour; discrimination based on race, gender, age, income class, body mass, living area, political voting-record, football fan-ship and musical preference; insensitivity towards material, emotional or spiritual distress; and attempted emotional or financial black-mailing, skirt-chasing or death-threats perceived by the reader of the said written texts.Comment

I think he was referring to the major market indices“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

I actually found that it worked pretty well. At least with a young female analyst. Some wine and steaks and shop talk during a walk in the neighborhood was a good prelude...before getting down to some serious gin and tonics on the couch, while perusing Myers, Tom C. et al.Originally posted by Roland
Hmm... I've never tried the "Do you want to see my book collection on investment banking?" strategy.
Of course, it was the books that had the desired effect. Consultants are supposed to be impervious to alcohol...
FYI: She still thinks Myers is a little hard for self-reading. But after a couple finance courses at MBA school, she won't see it that way. I really did tell her to read it in the bathtub. She said she preferred other stuff for that time...
I guess my next step is to offer reading it to her in the tub...Last edited by TCO; May 16, 2002, 12:46.Comment

Ec,
"no, next years... but also major market indices "
Ah... eh
It's quite warm up here, maybe that's why I'm a little slow to grasp what your question is.
GP, I think we've finally found a good use for economics.

--"Btw, your sig is a nice summary of US business & economy during the last 10 years"
I know. The only surprising thing about it is how long it took the accountants to learn that trick from the politicians.
--"But can I take the "Anything can be done with the right amount of smoke and mirrors. (Emily Weems)" as new sig ?"
Go for it.
--"Don't be silly."
But it's so fun...
