I have been asked my \u201copinion\u201d with respect to the existence of a\u00a0Collective unconscious in terms of the Carl Gustav Jung<\/b>\u00a0(1875\u00a0\u2013 1961), who disagreed with Freud and believed his personal development was influenced by factors he felt were unrelated to sexuality. Nevertheless, Jung\u2019s work has led to many considering it to be a form of collective unconsciousness that exists whereby we are all connected somehow and respond in a herd manner.<\/p>\n

I really have no opinion on Jung\u2019s work. Nevertheless, there is clearly a sort of collective unconsciousness that comes into play creating panics. I tend to see it more as a herd of zebra. They are all clustered together and one on the fringe\u00a0of the herd sees a lion approaching. He starts to run and the others all panic and run as well without knowing why nor did they see the lion. They run because everyone else is running. This is the same thing that dominates a panic in markets. At the end of the day, everyone sells because everyone else is selling. There is usually no solid reason that can be asserted as a fundamental.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
