"I am curious about the nature of your strategy for dealing with this sequence of events" In order of importance, more or less: --keeping healthy and building up savings and retirement income --keeping out of debt, including mortgage debt --cash in the bank --BEARX, the Prudent BEAR fund --some gold and gold and silver mining stocks --maintain position in oil stocks, drilling equipment, royalty trusts, despite disastrous experience in that area over the last year. Looking forward some day to getting back into common stocks, when P/Es, yields, and book values are back at or below historical norms, at which point I will probably buy discounted closed-end funds again as I did during the period 1974-1982.
