"Finally, comes the third phase when the market boils with activity as the 'public' flocks to the boardrooms. All the financial news is good, price advances are spectacular and frequently 'make the front page' of the daily papers, and new issues are brought out in increasing numbers. It is during this phase that one of your friends will call up and blithely remark, 'Say, I see the market is going up.
