Or economy journalists. The other monkey theory, that a monkey throwing 
darts at the stock listings in the paper would do at least as well as 
an economist has now been proved a few times.

done an experiment with actual darts (although there for safety they 
replaced the monkeys with sports journalists,  I kid you not).
