Christine -

column by David Eddy. His sense of bafflement matches mine.

I'm not at all baffled... take my gentle words with a heavy grain of salt. My conclusion is that Wall Street is keeping it's brains in a dark place.

It's morbidly fascinating in its own way. What are people going to do when reality finally has to assert itself into this optimistic fantasy world?

We've been here before. Please to read the highly regarded economic history text (labeled as "required reading for the world's central bankers" by Boston Globe Sunday columnist David Warsh) by Charles P. Kindleberger "Manias, Panics & Crashes."

Need I tell you the plot?
