Yep, when all hell breaks loose in financial markets,
sacrifice a rich or famous person.
That'll distract the masses.

The sick thing is...
it usually works.

We ALL insider trade.

I buy a stock
because I think I have some secret knowledge
the rest of the market doesn't,
and the stock is underpriced.

Jon shorts stocks
for the exact same reason.
(that I think I have some secret knowledge...)
