The informal theory that stock market prices move in the same direction as the hemline of women's skirts, short skirts being considered bullish and long skirts bearish.

I also like the hemline theory better than the freight-car-loading theory, on the grounds of aesthetics. The former theory, you will recall, relates stock booms to periods in which hemlines are higher.
