In a market where the quality of products for sale is difficult to determine (such as used cars), if the majority of offerings are low quality &#8220;lemons,&#8221; buyers will come to distrust sellers and drive the average transaction price down to the &#8220;lemon price.&#8221; In this environment, the sellers of high quality used cars will only be offered lemon prices, since buyers can\u2019t tell the difference. And since lemon prices are below the true value of the high quality vehicles, the sellers of good used cars will choose not to sell, eventually resulting in a market with only lemons being offered for sale.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/pandodaily.com\/2013\/09\/17\/the-market-for-idiocy\/\" target=\"_blank\">The market for idiocy<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Ginormous USDINR chart<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/stockviz.biz\/tag\/USDINR\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1582711\" alt=\"e385268aacd8409fa1847a6a47595868635153561016570285\" src=\"http:\/\/portalvhds29z8xdrqhczq.blob.core.windows.net\/wordpress\/2013\/09\/e385268aacd8409fa1847a6a47595868635153561016570285.png\" width=\"745\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/portalvhds29z8xdrqhczq.blob.core.windows.net\/wordpress\/2013\/09\/e385268aacd8409fa1847a6a47595868635153561016570285.png 745w, https:\/\/portalvhds29z8xdrqhczq.blob.core.windows.net\/wordpress\/2013\/09\/e385268aacd8409fa1847a6a47595868635153561016570285-186x300.png 186w, https:\/\/portalvhds29z8xdrqhczq.blob.core.windows.net\/wordpress\/2013\/09\/e385268aacd8409fa1847a6a47595868635153561016570285-635x1024.png 635w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 745px) 100vw, 745px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nifty ended the week +2.76% (INR) +5.31% (USD) as both the markets and INR rallied on the back of the non-taper announcement from the US Fed.
