Two scientists have created a mathematical model of the stock market, which shows that chaotic ups and downs happen because of the actions of the traders, not because of any real change in the underlying value of the stocks.

This means that share prices will never be predictable, said Thomas Lux, in the Economics department at Bonn University, Germany, speaking to the BBC.

Jenna, Ike dug this article up this morning from the BBC. I've been hearing more and more about the influence traders are placing on the markets. It's a new world out there, times are a changing.

As I said over a year ago...investors have been forced to become traders. I think most of us have been able to adapt very well. At least the bottom line tends to support this assumption as we challenge the volatility in the markets.

This volatility has given everyone the chance to profit...<g>
