The stock market

The recent ups and downs of the stock market remind me of this line from Airplane:

He's all over the place, 900 feet, up to 1300 feet . . .
what an asshole.
Stock traders - yes you are the asshole.

Very nice. That line, among many in that movie, always stood out for me. Not sure if that contributed to it having a lasting place in your memory, but nice to see it invoked in such an apropos manner.

That was one of the best lines from that movie... just out of nowhere. It certainly fits.
