OT We can also say that in the event of nuclear holocaust all stocks go to $0. Yeah, I suppose. But that brought to mind this passage in "Liar's Poker" where this guy with great trading skills, as soon as he heard of the disaster at Chernobyl loaded up with potato futures. He figured the Russian crops would be radiated and he the price of western potatos would skyrocket. I guess I just don't think the same way as a trader :-)
