“Markets Talk”• “Markets are said to talk when prices in them move up or
down significantly.” • For example, if the government were to raise taxes,
investors might sell some of their stocks for gold and cash. Stock prices fall, gold prices rise. The market responds to what investors feel is a good idea or a bad idea.
• If all were not against this new policy, only some, some investors would sell while others would buy.
