Delta House is sometimes startled by how one movie can move markets and influence portfolios. After 25 years, we should probably know better

A massive hit or a big loser often seems to have ripple effects (not just with respect to bonds).  A giant IPO also can rock the boat.


Nothing wrong with this.  The excitement and uncertainty can add spice to Delta Tau Chi's world of relatively predictable H$3.3 million daily profits.

It's a pretty efficient market, as it is right a LOT more than it is wrong. ndmaster Apr 07, 11:34

It is a fine market and an entertaining pastime. And an accurate gauge of intelligence, judgment, moral worth, and looks {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Apr 07, 11:38

Remove share limits so that a port could theoretically be 100% Minecraft? {nm} RamsFan2004 Apr 07, 13:02

Sure, it would get to fair value sooner, so I could sell my shares. ndmaster Apr 07, 14:50

It would be a very different game. I'm not sure it would change it for the better. {nm} RamsFan2004 Apr 07, 15:42

But, would it be more accurate? ndmaster Apr 07, 16:00

Sure, but it would become a question of which hot stock each week to go all-in on. The prices of smaller stocks will all be in-accurate. {nm} RamsFan2004 Apr 07, 16:02

Maybe for a short while, but the market would adjust to it. Inaccuracies are inefficiencies that traders can and will take advantage of to ndmaster Apr 07, 17:17

If you can buy a huge volume up to the "target" price, then it'll fall by a huge volume when you sell your shares. {nm} Antibody Apr 07, 17:24

That's not what I said. Ramsfan said if someone else bought a huge amount of shares, then I could sell my small number of shares ndmaster Apr 07, 17:49

You didn't say "small {nm} Antibody Apr 07, 19:14

I assumed. Sorry {nm} ndmaster Apr 07, 23:13
