Supposing that everyone had put their life savings in the stock market. That could have a pretty serious impact on consumer spending. Scumbria, Yes, if they needed the $ for day to day living. But most people can go for some time without it, and by the time they do need it, the markets have recovered. Its one of the advantages of being at the end of one of the longest economic expansions in this country's history. For a true bear market, I think that fundamental economic indexes have to be in the toilet; growing unemployment, slowing capital spending, wage stagnation etc. These are not the conditions in this country right now. ted
