well mutual funds are the little investors.....they pay the "experts" a commission.....or financial planners because they don't have a clue about the market...

what they don't realize is....most of those experts don't have a clue either....and they don't give a crap...they made their money on the commission.....

thats how the little guy becomes a bagholder.....

just listen to these t.v folks who's audience is the average guy trying to understand the markets....they bring on these fools who keep telling them to buy buy buy in 10 years you will be alright.....

but....what they don't know is.....theres only times in history when buy and hold works like that.....we just had one of those times so most folks think its always going to be like that......

but those days are gone.....and those experts want them to still think that way because they know you have to trade the markets now....and they sure won't be holding for 10 years.....they are positioned long and will make the fast money in the uptrend that won't last.....leaving the bagholders behind.....

this has been the game all the way down....take the fast money and run and because the public is conditioned not to time the market and you have to accept the markets up and downs....

well.....its like taking candy from a baby.....the public buys and the market drops....they think oh well...thats the risk you take....it will come back.....

basically....they just had their pocket picked and don't even know it....and even worse....they are conditioned to accept it....

lots of experts say t/a is voodoo or useless.....they want the average guy to be as blind as possible in the markets.....the more stupid the investing public is the better.....

fact is....you can time the market....and t/a evens the playing field with the crooks....

how about the retrace.....i'm just an average guy who trades for a living.....i found it.....i proved for a fact how it has worked perfect.....

why don't they put this on t.v.....can a little guy like me see this carnage and not the " experts".....i find that hard to believe.....

and if the experts know about the bubble retrace....and still just say buy buy buy......

pure and simple they are crooks......

i just can't believe a guy like me can see this coming and call it on the way down like i did.....and then i watch these "experts" on t.v doing the opposite of what the retrace says.....

it tells me they are either total morons and don't deserve to be doing what they do......or they know what they are doing....and there job is to separate folks from their money and give them false info while doing it....

i know what the answer is...
