Miniskirts Indicate Bull Market?

I can’t find a link, but when I was sort of listening to Neil Cavuto this morning, he was interviewing someone about how miniskirts may indicate a bull market.

The idea is that as women (consumers) are feeling more confident their skirts get shorter and the economy booms. The guy said you could track this from as far back as the 1920s. Apparently, skirts would get short to show of the stockings, which were expensive. As the economy tanked and things got tighter in people’s wallets, the skirts got longer again because women couldn’t afford the luxury of stockings.

Wacky idea, but interesting, no?

UPDATE:  Here’s a link. [Thanks, Tommy]
