If the market were a man, I'd have to file rape charges.

Just sayin'.

Yes indeed. Over a 340 point loss yesterday alone? It has been bad for almost a year now. I think i've easily lost 20-25% of my entire portfolio.

despite a lack of anything overly negative on the newsfront yesterday, the market was "in a bad mood."

 

[heatherrae]

Oh, jeez well the republicans would have us to believe that anytime they are in office that roses will sprout from our butts on the economic front. How, oh how, could the market keep tanking when we've had a republican in office for 8 years now? Maybe it is because there are about a million other factors that are more important than who is in office? Don't tell the republicans.

Everyone is going to stay neutral until the election is over. Gas prices should be falling now that summer is almost over so until January expect the same.

It will rebound, the only problem is nobody knows when.

I'm right at -20% too, from last August to this past August. So how much more "staying the course" do we do before calling our brokers and begging them to circle the wagons?

If the market was the government, I’d want reparations.

The market is doing me what John Edwards did Rielle Hunter.

The market fucked me so hard I’m starting to wonder if I look fat in these jeans.

The market is making me wash its dirty socks.

The Dow and the S&P are trading me back and forth for a pack of cigs.

I don't know to each their own I suppose. I'm a broker and I'm staying in, even if it kills me.

It will bounce back, trying to time it is impossible. But by missing the first 10 days of the turn around you stand to lose like a 10% return. One of the fund families sent the information to me I thought it was very interesting.
