Darleen > the intelligent investor should buy bank stocks as of course risk debt adds up to profit increase and higher stock value Providing business remains good, generally, and there are no insolvencies. > Debt we know does nothing but increase. Sure, but interest, however little, still has to be paid. Further, they have shown that, besides the misallocation of new investment funds into nonsense projects like the repurchase of a company's shares on the market, the return on borrowed dollars, even those apparently "well invested", is far less than it used to be. > Woe to those who put dollars in the bank In a bear market, the winner is the one who loses the least. So, it could be that the one who put his money in the bank turns out to be the winner. In deflationary times money is always king. > Woe to investment funds too as the shuttle didn't land so space is still not looking as if it has tremendous future profits potential Except for those who draw fat salaries working at NASA, JPL etc.
