High heels are rarely seen on the streets of Manhattan nowadays. Everybody is wearing flats. They may be designer flats, but flats they are.
Paranoid to the last, I see this one more reason to distrust the bull market that began in March.
When I spot a woman teetering along on Sex in the City-era artifacts, it just looks so wrong.
Color, another sign of the times, indicates a certain schizophrenic analysis of the economy that gibes with my own sense of the market. The clothing in the boutiques along Madison Avenue is generally black, but there are violent bursts of color. I saw a purple overcoat in the men's section of Saks today, and the shock brought me back to the endless fakeouts of the last six months.
Who would wear such a coat? Someone who had just squeezed the last short out of his position, of course.

Could the lack of high heels be an indication of health awareness. In my business ((RMT)-registered massage therapist in BC Canada.) we explain the problems that high heels can cause - all kinds of postural problems as well as a shortening of the calf muscles.
Maybe people are aware of such in the markets and using a more healthy approach to their trading. There will always be corrections but the underlying triumph seems to statistically always ride with the optimists.
I have also noticed fewer cigarette butts - however, the butts that I do see seem much longer than in the past.
I really enjoy your writing and YOUR ideas. Please keep up the writing and economic thought.
