Sounds amazingly like those speculators who walked away from deposits on ridiculously overpriced real estate.

I look forward to the day I can evaluate stocks based on the old-fashioned metrics. All this cheap money has really distorted the equities markets worldwide.

Unfortunately, when (and I don't know exactly when...but I'm clenching my teeth cause I know it's coming) you get the big, bad event - a credit crackup - the markets will blow up and the good will go down with the bad. On one hand, it would be terrific to get the opportunity to pick up "forever" brand names like SBUX or MCD in the single digits, on the other, what happens if equities remain in a prolonged (10 year+) bear market as a result (much like what seems to be unfolding in real estate)?
