Stock market analysts always attribute a sudden drop in the market to some domestic or international political crisis. I maintain, however, that these declines are attributable to the phases of the moon, which also cause periodic political upheavals and increases in tension in world affairs.
It can be inferred that the author is critical of the stock analysts because he
(A) believes that they have oversimplified the connection between political crisis and fluctuations of the market
(B) knows that the stock market generally shows more gains than losses
(C) suspects that stock analysts have a vested interest in the stock market, and are therefore likely to distort their explanations
(D) anticipates making large profits in the market himself
(E) is worried that if the connection between political events and stock market prices becomes well-known, unscrupulous investors will take advantage of the information

Author has tried to show how oversimplified the analysis of analysts is by using the similar line of reasoning and exaggerating while doing so, so it is clear how illogical their analysis is.
