...hours after her contractions began, Nereciana was racked by spasms and began complaining of violent abdominal pain. At first Joseph and neighbor Beatrice Nyirahabimana thought the severe contractions of first labor caused her pain. But after eight hours, it was clear that some vital force was leaving Nereciana. Joseph went to seek help. "I'm too weak," Nereciana said to Beatrice. "I'm dying, aren...

...something was very different. Even if just for a short while, the element of risk, as inseparable from the market as it was invisible during a long run-up, had reimposed itself on investor psychology in a cathartic half a day of pain.
