Give that Dow timeline a look-see and then consider the number 7,500. It can sink a lot further, don't you think?

People are so willing to make plans during the boom of an economy, but want to ignore the fact that this is a real risk. Until my spouse got made redundant yesterday I was guilty of not acknowlaging the seriousness of this economic downturn!

There are some unbelievable bargains out there at the moment so as long as you pick solid companies with little or no debt then you could make substantial gains in the next 2-5 years.

However, I'm just a old lady :) LOL! It's gotta do what it's gotta do to get back to being based on reality and not on overinflated hot air. Settle in, get comfortable, and ride it out. :) There are a lot of much needed adjustments that will have to be made.

There is no way to time the end of the recession, or the end of the stock market decline. Therefore the only logical thing to do is to invest smaller amounts over time. Good post!

I am following this story from SE Europe right now, but it doesn't look good for the home team at this point. Still any wise investor (who is holding on through the storm) would want the insurance provided by diversification, as Kevin pointed out.

They are hit HARD. The good part for me is that I am young enough that I am going to be able to start really pumping in money to my retirement accounts during this down turn and quit possibly make some nice returns when I retire.

Then you can get back to your regularly scheduled markets after 9 months instead of 3+ years of them stretching it out. Stop the bailout and buyouts of banks, let em go and start where we are headed anyway!
