William - Re: " Todays buy and hold long term investors have linear expectations and will be disappointed " No kidding? Well, I have been buying and buying (which includes HOLDING) and I'm not disappointed. If you seem to be professing some deep philosophical understanding that the market and stocks can and do go down, well, I kinda noticed that myself. Did you notice that markets that go down generally come back up? Many studies of stock markets have noticed this same trend. Re: "The stock market appears to be very liquid as it rises but becomes very illiquid once the sentiment of the crowd changes then "selling begets selling". Yes - I have noticed. I have also noticed that 'when "selling begets selling" ' is a great time to buy . Try it sometime. Your world will not feel so black and miserable. Owning a stock in a great company can be an uplifting experience. And it sounds like you need one. Paul
