Individual objectivity is a dynamic process, a perpetual goal to strive for; it is not a static end state. Computers are limited and reach an end state. Humans are able to think (if they work at it). Apples and oranges. It takes effort and discipline to maintain objectivity.

Don't confuse risk-taking with subjectivity either. Objectivity allows calculated risk-taking. Risk-taking for its own sake is a loser's game.

Convention and objectivity are far from synonymous. Convention and intellectual laziness are synonomous. Markets tend to be efficient over the long term but inefficiency over the short term flows in part from emotion (absence of thinking): The greed (fmk)/fear (pfister, chisy, yoest, johnson) axis frame your subjectivity and, most likely, your losses.

And get this too - Forget the Cubs and the Chisox, two large-market losers who are getting their butts kicked by a small-market team in Cincinnati.

Keep the Bears while you're at it and the Bulls, two more losers from Chicago. ; )
