True. There really is no safe place to get an 8% yield. I'm willing to take some risk, but stocks seem to be the riskiest of all to me. As long as stocks of all sectors trade not on fundamentals but on the latest Fed statement of support, it's more like a casino than an efficient mechanism to allocate capital based on risk and reward. So I'll avoid the stock market until I see we have returned to an economy not centrally planned by Bernanke.
