Quote by Mark Twain
October. This is one of the peculiarly dangerous months to speculate in stocks in. The others are July, January, September, April, November, May, March, June, December, August, and February.
Summary
This quote humorously suggests that the stock market is always risky and unpredictable, regardless of the month. By satirically listing almost all of the months in a year, it emphasizes the uncertainty one faces when speculating in stocks. The intention behind the statement seems to be to emphasize the famous unpredictability of the stock market, implying that it is equally unsafe to invest in stocks at any time throughout the year.
