Calm No Surprise

I am getting tired of seeing articles proclaiming how well yuppie stockbrokers have maintained their wits during the Crash of ’87 (“New Brokers Appear Calm Facing First Bear Market,” Oct. 25). How could these brokers be upset over a market turn that has generated millions of dollars in commissions that go straight into their pockets? The only people who will certainly make money during these market swings are the stockbrokers.
