**Through:** Many traders each act on an unlocated fear, and their acts sum into prices that swing; the swings are then read by every trader as further evidence of a near wall.

**Novel properties:**
- anxiety written in prices
- a report each reader feeds back into

## Examples
- Financial reporters use 'market jitters' for days when prices swing on worries that are not yet tied to any single event. *(finance)*
