  • Bring on the bears!

    The US stock market is officially in a bear market, folks. On October 10, 2007, the S&P 500 crested at 1562.47 and closed today at 1244.68 -- a 20.47% reduction.

    Good news for us young folks.
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

        I've been nibbling at individual stocks that are special situations. The broader market is still a little too expensive for my tastes.

                Bear markets are a non-violent way of transferring wealth from the old to the young.

                          Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

                            That doesn't make much sense. The stock market as a whole has gone down only 3% in the last week. Are you invested in super-risky stocks or something?
