剛剛恰好看到的 XD 這是VOA的 words and their stories http://www.voanews.com/specialenglish/archive/2008-04/2008-04-21-voa1.cfm 裡面第九段和第十段有說 The meaning of a bear market is thought to come from an old story about a man who sold the skin of a bear before he caught the bear. An English dictionary of the sixteen hundreds said, "To sell a bear is to sell what one has not." Word experts dispute the beginnings of the word bull in the stock market. But some say it came from the long connection of the two animals -- bulls and bears -- in sports that were popular years ago in England. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.174.131.18 ※ 編輯: iamhappyyu 來自: 218.174.131.18 (06/01 23:14)
