Even readers who agreed with the sentiment had a hard time understanding the size of the award.
But the case was hardly a surprise to Daniel Kahneman, the psychologist and behavioural finance expert who won the Nobel Prize in economics just five days after the verdict.
They take greater risks to avoid losses than they would to secure gains, for example.
Working with Cass Sunstein at the University of Chicago Law School and David Schkade at the University of Texas, Kahneman has produced startling evidence showing that juries almost always mete out tougher monetary penalties than individual jurors.
"Deliberation produces a severity shift," the professors wrote in one working paper.

There are many challenges facing the Lusaka cease-fire signatories and the wider international community in implementing the Congolese peace agreement, but perhaps none so complex as the effort to disarm the non-Congolese armed groups destabilising the region from Congolese bases.
These armed groups --the largest of which are the forces associated with the former Rwandan Army (ex-FAR) and Interahamwe militias that carried out the 1994 Rwandan genocide -- are not the root cause of all of the Congo's problems, but their continued presence in the Congo is the primary cause of the war and much of the worst violence, whether of their own doing or of the neighbouring governments seeking to counter them.

Investing is an activity that allows the investor to become a master detective.
Investors should always try to determine what business will provide them with the best return over time and to do this they must closely examine businesses to determine which company, out of thousands, is the right one.
An investor must understand four concepts before making investment selections: Compound interest, present value, inflation, and what the difference is between price and value.
Despite short-term corrections, wars, recessions, global upheavals and economic downswings, historically stocks have significantly outperformed more conservative investment choices, as well as inflation.
Inflation has a negative effect on investment returns because if a business is earning 15 percent on the money it is investing back in its business inflation will decrease this return down by the current rate of inflation.

Recession
Recession or 'Bust' always follows a period of 'Boom'.
In a Boom the Government and banks create money as credit.
This is given out or loaned out into the economy and causes inflation, distortion of investment, and lots of debt.
Now if this change in money supply were the result of saving (instead of 'new' money), all would be OK.
The Boom is a period of wasteful investment in un-necessary capital goods, and the Bust is the return to the correct consumption/savings ratio.
What the Government should have done was to leave the economy alone, stop creating credit and let the adjustment take its course.

But the fact is, despite the horror of the terrorist attacks on September 11, investing basics remain the same.
Our initial instinct is to bail out of the market, and once out, stay out, especially as the market goes through steep declines in the days and weeks following the attack.
Investing in the market in the hope of making some extra bucks to buy a car or make a down payment on a home within a year or two is not a good idea because you may not recover from any losses in such a short term.
This also is a good time to reexamine your portfolio to see if you have the right investment mix to help weather a down market.
