Nassim Taleb has written about the folly of attaching narratives to financial markets, but Yahoo Finance proves this daily. Whenever there's a story about market movements there's a 50% chance the ticker shows the opposite of the headline.

Someone on ebay selling an original boxed VFX1 vr headset from the mid-90s. I wanted one of these so badly at the time and dreamed for years about how great vr would be.
