Why?

[Aujuba]

I've always wondered why everytime markets around the world go up Norway or Sweden (usually one) go the other direction. Asia and Eurpoe may be down but Norway or Sweden seem to go the other way. This is the site I use for a look at the world markets. http://money.cnn.com/data/world_markets/

Right now, Thailand and most all the world is up and Sweden is going the other way.

There usually is something there when the world is moving together in one direction.

Many have died or gone insane trying to understand this, for your and our safety we better stop talking about this right now.

when the world is up and richer,it buys assembled furniture.when the world is down and poorer,it goes to ikea.either that or the swedish bikini team is invested heavily in gold coins.

It appears that Aujuba was a bit too much generalizing. Did he loose big on some Swedish/Norwegian stock, yesterday?

The link provided by OP is alive. As I read it now (Thaitime, as the timestamp of my post says) - It's all green except for three red entries - one from Norway (down 0.19%) and two from Canada (down 0.55% and 0.81%) - So today it was Canada, that just had to be opposite the rest of the world.
