Would you be willing to give my Bear market opinion a little more consideration now ?

Remind me again where you forecasted the current problems in Russia as the reason for your bear market.

Jim, go up the cliff you won't regret it. You can always get off. My suggestion is get on the cliff at $118 and get off at $178 before year end. You can even shorted it when you decide to get off.....

P.S. not recommending shorting, just want you to know its an option.

What will it take for investors to realise the size of the risk they are taking ?

Well, for me, it takes calculating the price of the shares times the number of shares, and adding the commission. That ends up being just about exactly the size of the risk I take, every time I purchase stock.

If someone is having a hard time realizing this figure, then they should not be investing (IMHO) -- or if they do want to invest, there's this bridge...

Cheers,
KenB

Jim, I don't know what you're talking about. I've made so much money this year, and in this month too. My portfolio is at an all-time high.

This is not a bear market. I would have expected more out of a self-proclaimed professional.

Geesh!
