That's what I learned. If it's a market problem, and not a problem with your selection of great stocks (which really bothered me when I first started marketing), when it looks like dooms day, increase your holdings. I think the recent financial fiasco and the response of the market speaks volumes about "It shall return"....the market.
So you say.....the current market is the result of the big loans and the Fed's Quantitative Easing, aka dumping Billions on the market which usually causes inflation. Well yes they did (and bet will do it again) and no it didn't because it depends what the recipients do with that money that determines inflation or not.
As far as repayment of the loans it depends on to whom you are speaking. Reliable information I read says that the government made a ton of money on the loans and most of the principal has been repaid.......HA! The government made money on something.....whatta deal!
Staying on track, so we had a market crash and so we had a successful recovery....not talking about everything here, just the market....we are talking about investments.
That's my take of it.
Now am I a current investor? No! I am retired and live within my means living a very happy life. My money is in secure assets that don't pay much right now, but that's ok. I am fully aware of the time line on longevity and if you loose 50% of your holdings due to plain old greed or for whatever reason, you have to make 100% on what's left just to get back to where you were.....where you going to fined a legitimate investment like that and are you going to live long enough to get your money back.........the money you may need for current and future living?
Besides I can sleep soundly and enjoy my retirement because INVESTMENTS DON'T RULE ME!!!!!!!!
