Re: "I can't wait till we get to the bottom of the decline and he gets us all back fully invested."

The non-tech, non-glamour stocks are experiencing their bear market now. They led us into the bear. Perhaps they will be the first to bottom and turn upward.

Maybe the bottom will come in stages. Maybe the best approach will be to dollar-cost-average back into the growth stocks, starting while the tech and glamour stocks are still dropping.

On the other hand, maybe the tech and glamour stocks will never stop moving up and there won't be a true bear market after all.

Best wishes,

I2

You have been around long enough to know that a new bunch will move in and start all over again, or the "old" bashers will ignore a successful call and find something else wrong to gripe about. Maybe he will miss the bottom by a 1/2% or something..... Lets face it, you just can't win with some people, they live to find fault. I won't even speculate on the "Rocky Marciano" statement, who knows how long this could take. Have a nice evening.
