Mr. Market is on bailout watch. The Dow has been whipsawing wildly since news of the bailout first broke. The index is currently 3,454 points off its 52-week high.

Hard assets aren’t doing much better. Crude oil is selling for about $97 a barrel. Analysts at Merrill Lynch say prices may fall as low as $50 a barrel next year.

Today, I’d like you to imagine a hot-dog business. After buying your cart, permits, insurance, hot dogs, buns, and condiments, you hit the street. You sell hot dogs people will happily pay $2 for. Let’s say it costs you about $1.50 to produce a hot dog, so you’re making a gross profit of $0.50 per unit.
