Which gets us to the title of this blog post. Where would Wall Street be without "Black Swan events" to cover their asinine predictions?

In other words, it's The Big Short all over again.

They called that period "The Big Short", because no one had figured out that it would all end badly. In reality, everyone knew it would end badly but they didn't know what day it would end, so they pretended it would go on forever.
