 IT WAS autumn. The Red Indians at a remote reservation asked their new
 chief if the winter was going to be cold or mild. Since he was a Red
 Indian chief in a modern society, he couldn't tell what the weather
 was going to do .

 Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, he replied to his tribe that the
 winter was indeed going to be cold and that the members of the village
 should collect wood to be prepared. But also being a practical leader,
 after several days, he got an idea. He went to the phone booth, called
 the National Weather Service and asked: "Is the coming winter going to
 be cold?"

 "It looks like this winter is going to be quite cold indeed," the
 meteorologist at the weather service responded. So the chief went back
 to his people and told them to collect even more wood.

 A week later, he called the National Weather Service again. "Is it
 going to be a very cold winter?"

 "Yes," the man at National Weather Service again replied, "it's
 definitely going to be a very cold winter."

 The chief again went back to his people and ordered them to collect
 every scrap of wood they could find.

 Two weeks later, he called the National Weather Service again. "Are
 you absolutely sure that the winter is going to be very cold?"

 "Absolutely, " the man replied. "It's going to be one of the coldest
 winters ever."

 "How can you be so sure?" the chief asked.

 The weatherman replied: "The Red Indians are collecting wood like crazy."

 And that, my friend is how the stock market works!
