Contest: Count the Market Bottoms
I have an idea: Let's do a sentiment-check contest. How many times between 7am EST and 7pm EST on CNBC tomorrow will we hear the word "bottom" uttered? (We can't include me, as I'm on CNBC at 11am EST tomorrow. And any on-air mentions of Queen songs don't count.) Post your guess in the comments below, and I'll name the proud winner tomorrow evening.
The person closes to the correct number wins a copy of Edward Chancellor's great Devil Take the Hindmost: A History of Financial Speculation. Contest closes at 7am EST tomorrow, so no more guesses after that.
