According to Wikipedia, The sone was proposed as a unit of perceived loudness by S. Smith Stevens in 1936. In acoustics, loudness is the subjective perception of sound pressure. Although defined by Stevens as a unit, it is not one of the SI units. Such units meet the stringent criteria of metrology, which include being realizable in a highly precise and reproducible manner, and so transferable for scientific and industrial purposes in a range of contexts.

The stocks seem to be doing pretty well. I don't know much about stocks, so I guess this chart could mean bad things too.... -looks at it sideways- ... that didn't help.
