The market is still in a flat... Apparently, we are waiting for something...

So, here’s a little humor:

***

A large financial corporation. A trader is riding in the elevator. The elevator opens on one of the floors, and an analyst enters with a pile of books and notebooks. The trader looks at him with disdain and says: "Well, now will you tell me, up or down?"

***

A mathematician is asked:

— What is the probability that if you go outside right now, you will meet Napoleon?

The mathematician surrounded himself with reference books, calculators, and computers, locked himself in a room for three days, and gave the answer:

— Approximately 0.000001 percent.

The same question was asked to a seasoned trader. The answer came immediately:

— 50/50: either I will meet him, or I won’t.

***

— I dream of earning ten thousand dollars a month, like my father.

— Your father earns ten thousand dollars a month?!

— No, he dreams about it too...
