Reply #14: Yeah time's the major issue

I'm still young enough that I can play the 20 or even 30 year game with my portfolio, so I'm still in this through the recession (Here's hoping it doesn't last longer than the normal 10 months though), and, as I said upthread, I'll probably switch my weighting around and move more money into the market from treasury bonds when indicators point to growth starting again. That said, I'm still planning on a bumpy ride for the next 1 to 2 years--just in terms of dropping, not recovery.
