re: deceptive, distressing, and excessively disruptive:
That depends. Are you buying, or selling? I love the market's volatility, Inefficiency, random sector rotation, and overshoots in both directions. How else would I get the chance to outperform the averages (and 99% of mutual funds), by keeping my head, buying low and selling high?
I'm just irritated that I ran out of cash before the bottom. But, if we get to 20 (next week, at this rate), I'll sell my higher-cost stock, and use half the money to buy LEAPs. These prices are a no-brainer. You can't lose. All I have to do is hold, till sanity returns. It's so easy to make money when the market is so stupid. |
