It is getting dark and there will be more bears now

[topum]

This is the entrance at the back of our host's garden. There is a stream a couple of hundred meters down the mountain path from there. I forgot a bucket near the stream and was going to go and get it but ran into our host's son at the back of the garden and he thought it would be better to bring the bucket back in the morning because "it is getting dark and there will be more bears now".

I still went and got the bucket. I worked in the City and definitely saw more bears than that Transylvanian boy. My last trade was part of a bearish strategy. And yes, "it is getting dark and there will be more bears now" is as true about the markets as it is about Transylvanian forests.

I never saw bears.

They are awesome if you see them in the wild not in a zoo, they are miserable in zoos. They can be quite dangerous too. Russia has more bears than any other country in the world.
I saw them in Romania and of course in London, but those were a different kind: http://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/bearmarket.asp and much less interesting.

I would not want to meet a bear.

Yes, meeting them probably isn't a good idea but watching them for a while is quite interesting.
