[QUOTE="Peregrini, post: 45132, member: 2670"] HDRKID; You act like the Stock Market has never had any ups and downs before and that you are the one who predicted this current decline. Every investor I know saw this coming. They just weren't sure exactly when, neither were you. As long as this Country keeps spending money it doesn't have as well as the European Countries, the world markets are going to react erratically. Right now it looks to me to be a buying opportunity.:) The following shows market fluctuations back to 1945. It came back from WORSE drops than this every time.
