In a paper published recently in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B (Biological Sciences) that looked at demographic data from more than 310,000 Chinese women, Song demonstrated a dramatic sex ratio decrease more than a year after the two - year famine began and lasting about two years after it ended, followed by
an equally significant bounce back to pre-famine proportions.
There is not yet any technical reason to assume the broad market has formed a
significant bottom, but it is
equally risky to enter new short positions right now because stocks are due for a substantial
bounce (the Nasdaq is on pace for its sixth consecutive week of losses).
