The problem with what we have seen is that it happened all too fast. When a slam dunk happens this fast things usually pop back up pretty quick also. It's the long slow drain that leads to the real bear. I think we hit our bottom at 3652 today and will likely bounce around from here.

I'm sure we've all heard the stories about people taking out home equity loans to buy stock. The guy in the office next to me knows a guy who took out a $300,000 loan recently to get into the market.

Those are the sorts of people who are going to be having a rough time for the forseeable future.
