I watched the opening of the NYSE this morning. Like a lot of people, I was moved by the two minutes of silence, the singing of "God Bless America," and the ringing of the opening bell by members of New York's heroic police and fire department. My pride in America is matched only by my confusion by what happens on the trading floor. A bunch of people in different colored jackets throwing out numbers on their hands(?). Watch this some time and see if you can figure out how any of it works.
