So the strong hands, who believe in cost-averaging and have long horizons, will hang on. The weak hands, who in some cases probably shouldn't have been in the market in the first place, will get shaken out. Most SI posters are probably strong hands, so there may be a tendency to assume that everyone else is, too.

I guess we'll see this week.

Ya know, I sure do hate being right.

Barring a monster rally before the close, the DOW is down another 300 points today. NASDAQ and S&P are worse, and the Russell 2000 seems to be a lost cause. Wheeee!
