Ben Lakoff(@benlakoff):Great article. IMO perfectly encapsulates what a lot of us are feeling. Seafoam. Schrödinger’s bubble. Financial Psychosis. "Because the fear runs in both directions. One half of your brain says: protect yourself. The crash is coming. The other says: maybe this $1,000 check turns my grandson into the baron of Jupiter?"
