Ah, yes, those dexterous education stocks. I’ve had an affinity towards their bullish tendency for quite some time. And I will be repetitious in my reasoning and theory- there is something about education that promises better times. It is as if knowledge is the light at the end of the tunnel. And during our darkened economic state, the light gets ever brighter. There lies its appeal. The unemployed and underwhelming workers are like moths, attracted by the warmth and the light of higher education as it promises change, better times. Perhaps outside the tunnel of economic turmoil the air is fresh and clean. The more desperate the mind, the more creative the imagination of what’s outside- outside is where we can finally afford our mortgages, pay down our debts, spend a little, eat out again, buy gifts for our loved ones without remorse, converse with a stranger about that game winning three-pointer last night and not about how today might be your last day at work. And so back to school they go. They always taught us in grade school that college opened up doors to different places. By the looks of these education-stocks, I would presume a lot of people are knocking on doors.
