Copper had a drop
Silver a pop,
Brent Crude is currently even;
With the VIX on the rise
Expectations revise.
It’s only most natural, a given.

“Sell! Sell!” some shout
as they flail about,
“The economy’s a real disaster.”
“Buy! Buy!” others scream
(They’re the Optimist Team)
’Cause they know what it is they are after.

When fear’s on the rise
Opportunist’s surmise
They can get the best stock at a bargain,
for as novices step back
with their cash in a sack
Prices sink and get buried in jargon.

Now that Ethanol’s red
And Palladium dead
You can look to the Currencies option.
USD, EUR
Haven’t moved very far
Should I put my kids up for adoption?
