Have you noticed how quickly we find out who the political winner is on election days? In times past, we waited late into the night while ballots were tallied.
With the efficiency of technology including the rapidity of information we now learn who the projected winner is within 10 minutes of the polls closing.
The stock market also encounters more volatility again because of information being so readily available.
When the news became negative every single day starting the second week of August 2007, the number of sales rapidly decreased. The decrease in sales further allowed prices to fall because of burgeoning inventory. More bad news comes on the internet and people become more and more fearful.
I believe this trend will continue until the news starts turning positive. I hope the prices come back as rapidly as they fell…….always a possibility!
