Hi Donnie:
Re Crashs: My take is this....
In 1929 people ran out of cash and jobs at the same time so could not get back in the market despite a wish to do so. After our mini-crash in April there were plenty of jobs , income, and liquidity so we had a relatively fast recovery.
IMO what happened last week is that the big boys have got us little fellers figured out too well. We were suckered in by the euphoria of a good earnings season with too high expectations. They were selling while the market peaked.

I have had to quit buying on "news" ( like a stock split) because those 'in the know' have already bgt perhaps months before and are ready to sell.
This year I have been willing to sell anytime to take profits and pay the taxes and its a whole new ball-game with a better and freer attitude.
Good luck
Sig
