Okay then, I'll take your word for it..... this time is the REAL crash....no more crying wolf.....totally different than the 5000 other times someone cried that the market was gonna' crash. I will now enter my bomb shelter and start re-loading my empty shell casings. I still have my Y2K water and food....I've got my gold and silver buried in the desert where no one but me can find it......and I have put my entire net worth plus any funds I could beg, steal or borrow into puts and short positions. Try to remember that this is an election year. If I were a Democrat I would not want to leave office with the stock market (and thereby the economy)crashing to its' knees. This would make it too easy for the Republicans to blame any failures they have in office on the previous administration if they are elected. If the Democrats retain office....duh...who wants to retain office when they have to clean up a mess like that?. The Republicans may like to have something to blame on Bill but , let's face it, they expect to win the race and don't want a mess to start out with either. ELECTION years do NOT crash.....it just won't happen. Volatile, yes. 1% to 4% drops in a week followed by 1% to 4% rallies , sure...maybe even more on the NAZ. Maybe even a flat year with lots and lots of buying and selling opportunities. A crash????? No chance. Every dip is a buying opportunity at least until December.
