ABSTRACT
[T]his surprising Fall of the Reputation of Stocks is not by Management, but for want of Management. Believe me, Sir, there are no French Agents or Popish Plots in the matter, but ‘tis for want of Agents, and for want of Plot; these Men are confounded and amazed by the Sur-prise of their own Affairs. (The London Journal, September/ October 1, 1720)
