Advice to the Yids* Out There

Yes, the market tanked today, so there is likely a bounce tomorrow, but if you are Jewish, don't invest on Tisha B'av, which starts this sun down.

I'm not particularly superstitious, but when you consicer that this date gave us:

• The reports of the spies, which led the Jews to spend 40 years in the desert.


• The destruction of the 1^st temple.


• The destruction of the 2^nd temple.


• The crushing of the Bar Kokhba rebellion.


• The first crusade, which set of an orgy of pogroms and murder.


• The expulsion of the Jews from Spain.


• The expulsion of the Jews from England.


• The start of WWI.

So, seriously, not a good day for Jews to invest.  I'm just saying. 

^*I'm a Yid myself, so I can use the term.
