Hi Dolinar,

Thanks for the link to that interesting translation. Well done!

You might be interested that there was a stock market collapse a couple of decades prior to the one you described. After the Eire Canal opened in New York (around 1810 as I recall), there was a rush of interest in canal companies in the stock market. Most companies organized collected a lot of cash from interested investors, and never did get around to turning a spadeful of dirt. Even then, Wall Street knew full well its main business was fleecing Main Street. <g>

Best, Ray
