HOW STOCK MARKET WORKS
It was autumn, and the Red Indians on the remote reservation askedtheir New Chief if the winter was going to be cold or mild. Since hewas a Red Indian chief in a modern society, he couldn't tell what theweather was Going to be. Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, hereplied to his Tribe that the winter was indeed going to be cold andthat the members of the village should collect wood to be prepared. But also being a practical leader, after several days he got an idea. He Went to the phone booth, called the National Weather Service andasked "Is the coming winter going to be cold?" "It looks like thiswinter is Going to be quite cold indeed," the meteorologist at theweather service Responded. So the Chief went back to his people and told them to collect evenmore Wood. A week later, he called the National Weather Service again."Is it Going to be a very cold winter?" "Yes," the man at NationalWeather Service again replied, "It's definitely going to be a verycold winter."The Chief again went back to his people and ordered them to collectEvery scrap of wood they could find. Two weeks later, he called the National Weather Service again. "Areyou Absolutely sure that the winter is going to be very cold?""Absolutely," The Man replied. "It's going to be one of the coldestwinters ever." "How can you be so sure?" the Chief asked.The weatherman replied, "The Red Indians are collecting wood likeCrazy." This is how stock markets work!!!
