| 33. And yourself, as well |
|
A little perspective about the markets...in 1929, the market lost 13% on Black Monday and 12% the following day. At the bottom, it had lost 89% from the peak. Likewise, in 1987, it dropped 22.6% in one day. This is closer to the drop after 9/11 (7.1% in a day, 14.3% in a week). Okay, I expect more losses for a while and a wave of regulation in the Obama administration that will help right the ship of finance. Patience. As I've said many times, if you're in the stock market, buy Tums.
We've been expecting a bubble burst and those things are messy.
