Hemline theory says market's going up

Finally, let's have some fun and look at the uber-important "hemline theory." According to this theory, the length of women's skirts gives an indication of which way the market will go. Before you worry that I'm serious about this, let me tell you I'm not, but there are legitimate indicators that haven't had quite the same success rate as the hemline theory!

In the 1920s and 1960s, hemlines were at highs (relative to the times) at the same time the stock market was booming. In the 1930s and 1940s, women practically tripped over their lengthy skirts, while the market was tripping over itself, as well. Miniskirts were also the rage in the mid-1980s, but around October, many popular designers decided miniskirts looked silly (especially for working women). I'm sure most of you remember the Crash of 1987 in October. So what's the trend today? Short skirts are in … fashion for thought.

How is your house selling?

Ooops, sorry..just checked your profile...never mind

Sorry Awesome but the hemline theory has been around for decades, it was poppycock then and it still is now.

PS however I have had my shirt lifted, trousers down and been well and truly economically shafted by two be-trousered females.

Nah... CS Gigolo is a title that doesn't suit me at all, especially now I'm only here for the Forums....and anyway they've given the position to Rusty for life, it seems.....

Hemlines are superflous at this time of the year here, shorts are the dress code now
