What the HELL is going on with the market lately?


It makes no sense! Down 100 one day, up nearly 200 the next day, down 100 the next day.

It's like investors have gone insane and they're starting to pull their money out of stocks because they heard a CEO has the sniffles and might be coming down with a cold.

Then the next day they're reinvesting because they heard he's feeling a little better.

YEESH!

We are on the 5th floor, why do you think they made the windows to where they wouldn't open!


Interest rates my friend, there are a lot of clients out there that play a yo yo game. When I have more time I will try to explain a little more in depth.

It's all greek to me. That's why I contibute to my 401k and let the professionals take care of the rest. The stock market is one of the things I never could understand.

I worry about things too much. I couldn't do that day trading thing.

I've been working off the idea that when the stock market tanks, or a particular stock tanks,  continue to buy the stocks anyhow. I guess I am thinking for blue-chips here at least- your GE's, Microsofts etc...10 shares going up a dollar is less likely to occur than 100 shares going up a nickle.
