In search of the Bellwthers


In investment lingo a bellwether is a stock that can lead us to safety or lead us to slaughter

The term is derived from the Middle English bellewether and refers to the practice of placing a bell around the neck of a castrated ram (a wether) in order that this animal might lead its flock of sheep.
