Anytime I can see a close up of a bull's derriere, I'm in.

Thank you Noreen for this very informative article. I found it very interesting. I agree with you the photos are really cool. So the bulls finally managed to get into Wallstreet. Let's hope their namesake truly dominates the market this year.

One of my favorite Wall Street Saying is about animals:

Bulls make money, Bears make money, sometime even chicken make money, pigs get slaughtered.

My understanding of is the psychology & character are more important to investing than methods and financial knowledge.

@Noreen, thanks a lot for the article. I am listening to this term bulls and bears from so many years but never understood the history behind those two terms. Thanks for giving us historical perspective about bulls and bears.

Noreen thanks for the history and the hysterical pictures! We may need a another animal on Wall Street given its tendencies toward very erratic behavior over the last 12 months any suggestions?
