It's spring. That means it's time for the annual butterfly exhibit at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. I stopped by the park on Monday to check it out. The variety and total number of butterflies and the length of time the exhibit runs varies from year to year. This year the variety and total number were the smallest and the length of run is the shortest I've seen in the dozen years I've been a zoo member. I hope the low numbers this year were an anomaly and not a sign of things to come.

In the simple form shorting the stock market is tantamount to betting against it.

I'm going to try to be as unbiased as possible in this opinion piece.

Why?

A couple days ago, as I reading my local news website, I came across an article about how a company is genetically engineering wolf genes and has created 3 supposed instances of the extinct (for tens of thousands of years) dire wolf. These three white wolves are living in an undisclosed location in the USA. I suppose I should be excited about it. But I'm not. My main question is 'Why?'.
