They make all these wild predictions, often basing all their arguments on things that they believe will happen one day. Obviously they are wrong 99% of the time. But that is irrelevant, because they just dream up something else and start screaming about that the next day.

if you look at the cyclical history of the stock market we should loose some where between 5/6 and 6/7 of the current value of the stock market. Unless you can figure out how to change the economic energy dynamics of the market.

Liquidated while it was high (long time ago), now pushed off into other investments which are tangible.
