Jeff Rollert: Boyle's Law, Women's Purses, Low Vol
Can a comparison be made between Boyle's Law, a woman's purse and low stock price volatility?
If gas expands to fill the space allotted to it, doesn't low vol do the opposite (adding the function of time) as a form of compression?
The low vol is a form of pressure...think of a bunch of Wall Street CFA's with ADD around bonus time.
The purse addition came from a notion that once a new (and presumably larger) purse is acquired, other stuff is added also to "fill" it...so the initial purchase flutters the butterflies wings and off things go...
Seems like a good time to look for bonus drift. I started boxing about four years ago as I thought it would be a good physical outlet and a break from gym and cycling. I started off slowly but have enjoyed it so much that I'm now at a level that I am used to spar with the pros at the gym when they have upcoming bouts.
