It helps to be a permabear and skeptic <G> and to understand the factor of the incredible amount of option selling that has gone on for years for "income."

I was 100% short on December 31. But the rest of the story is, I took it all by the third week of January and missed a lot of the down move.

Well if more stuff is going down fast than going up fast - just short the market and make away like a bandit no?

RE:"Most stocks seem to go down rather than up and the moves down are always much faster and violent"

Simply put...the stock market is run a lot more now by wall street traders compared to the 2000 era when the blind faith public was in control. They have moved on to real estate or whatever. So expect back and fill and occasional bigger sell offs because of it.
