Tip From A Dip

  

A sign that there was a disfiguring accident at the plant that made your guacamole? A bad date that you let go way too far?

You ignore him for a while, but his sheer tenacity overwhelms you. You buy some shares. The next day, the FDA announces they are shutting the company down. Your investment tanks. Tip from a dip.
