Thanks for the link! It was an interesting article. It seems he just released a book about the fractal behavior of the stock market!

Fractals will always amaze me!

The book title is 'The (Mis)Behaviour of Markets:A fractal view of risk, ruin and reward' and is published this year in the UK by Profile Business and the US by Basic Books. Mandelbrot's website is www.math.yale.edu/mandelbrot/
