Necktie, and a crisp white shirt, the uniform for the folks on Wall Street as they manipulate stock prices and make money when the market goes up and the market goes down. Or course there is no ONE market, what I refer to is the broad market indicators like the DOW, S and P 500, Russell, Wilshire, you know the rest. Here are the young whippersnappers who trade and analyze and report...moving the market this way and that. The faces are of different colors but more or less the pastel shirt and tightly cinched up tie are ubiquitous. I think there is something seriously wrong when men congregate in rooms, behind closed doors, moving money in and out of stocks and bonds and have to wear a tie while doing it. Maybe this constricts the blood flow to their heads. Why can't they dress like the folks at Microsoft where pajamas and Ed Hardy T-shirts are common? Maybe the portfolio guys' thoughts would be more imaginative if their carotid arteries could supply their brains with more oxygen.
