The thing to notice is not where the curve goes, but that the middle
displays a kind of whole market behavior that is definately not supposed
to be there.   The markets during the period are acting as a whole (and
not supposed to do that) and showing themselves to be both strongly
motivated and undecisive as a whole, and in an amplifying way.   The
evidence is that all you learned about 'market forces' in econ 101 is
out the window.
