Quote for the day

“One thing is certain, that at particular times a great deal of stupid people have a great deal of stupid money... At intervals, the money of these people — the blind capital, as we call it, of a country, is particularly large and craving; it seeks for someone to devour it, and there is a 'plethora'; it finds someone, and there is speculation; it is devoured, and there is 'panic'.” - Walter Bagehot
