chomolungma, re: The old saw that "markets climb a wall of worry," is true ...
... I would argue that the world will return to "normal" very quickly


I do indeed hope that you are correct, as this has been true in the past. In fact, I'm betting my net worth that you are right!

I've been through Vietnam and the cold war (I remember the idiotic run-duck-cover drills). In later years, I was a cold warrior (ICBM's). I have to agree with my 83 year old Mom that I have never seen anything like what we are going through now. But, I suppose we said the same thing with the advent of nuclear weapons.

When I open up a nice bottle of Merlot this evening, I'll offer a toast to you hoping that you are right in your prediction!

Kind regards,
greg

chomo, Re: >There is always uncertainty.

The times when the market seems certain, is the time to take the other side. The market was certain that technology was the path to riches in March 2000.

The old saw that "markets climb a wall of worry," is true because it is usually the very times when the risks are apparent, and hence fully discounted, that markets go up.

I would argue that the world will return to "normal" very quickly and that the fears that we all have will just become part of our lives like when we lived with a constant threat of nuclear war during the years of the Cold War.


Hopefully so, but check out how the market took off when the Cold War did end. Of course, there were many, many other factors in there driving it, but, who knows?
