Today's sell-off comes from the buying spree some time before.

Today's low comes from the unreasonable high some time before.

A recession comes from the irrational exuberance some time before.


We know that quite well but we hate to control exuberance. It makes us feel soo good! And that often ends up with us trying very hard to stop the slip of anything (except our weights)...

Many of us fight depression. It is a very tough job. But it may be much easier to handle if we are
aware that depression is just a pullback from the previous irrational exuberance. Anyway, it is much easier to check the upside of anything that is going up (again, except our weights) than to keep something from slipping. Both economies and our psyches seem to be subject to the law of gravity...

Maybe we can learn a lot from Mr. Alan Greenspan about maintaining our mental health. His art of steering of the U.S. economy to the middle-of-way would make us maestri of peace of mind...

i like the way you connect the 'depression' both in the economic as well as human sence.. a good notuon for the nation (which is going through depression).

I wonder why they call it depression in the first place? (referring to ecomonics)
