Sine wave of investors emotions

Speaking of visualization, here is another clever way to show people's emotions using picture that most people can recognize with.

This post is not about a website, but just an image that has been circulating on the web for quite sometime, so you might have already seen it, but I just came across it the other day and could not resist the temptation to share it with my blog readers.

Investors Emotions
Chart says the source is "Westcore Funds/Denver Investment Advisers LLC", and it is used or published by AIM/TRIMARK company, but I could not find the original posting or reference to this graph by either companies mentioned in the image. Lot of sites seem to reference this chart and talk about it because it is a very powerful message presented in a very elegant and simple way that it immediately captures the reader's attention. It sure caught my attention.

If anyone reading this can find the reference to the original posting by either one of these companies that are mentioned in the chart, please share it here in your comments.
