Yep, that is why I took everything out of the stocks and put it in cash, bonds and T-Bills back in December, 2007. I'm not putting it back there until the market returns to sanity. If you still have money in the equity market, I question your judgment.

It's down 439 at the moment and still rising. The President's Working Group on Financial Markets is not taking questions.
