pinhi...."1973-74 bear market" agree totally, if you were involved in it, you would remember that there was no liquidity....a busy day on the whole of the nyse was 12-15 mil shares. if you were an options trader, there existed no secondary market or clearing house, you bought them, you owned them, your decision was made purely on direction of the underlying.... current market is attempting to normalize excess...this is good, as it will result in a bit more efficiency...liquidity is the key, no safe haven that can produce desired and "required" institutional gains..... monies will return....just don't be fooled by the initial spike upwards....pick your moment to set positions based on your goals and objectives...
