I don't know about everyone, but my brother is mostly in bonds and money markets. And then my mom is almost all in bonds. They both skipped the last 2.5 years of carnage. Not a good sample of people, but there you have it. :)

yes that's true.

Another factor is that there's always been a high rate of outstanding loans out agaist 401k assets - people borrowing from their own 401k's. Whatever that borrowed money is used for it likely was not put into the stock mkt in a regular taxable acct. So it was out of the mkt, not getting whacked down 45% over the last 30 months.
