I lost a bunch of money in the last bear market and have slowly come back. At this point I'm going to sit and weather it.
don't know where you've been the last 4 yrs. the DOW has been on a steadily up trend; along the way the DOW made several all-time highs. ever gone bottom fishing? the sliver line about this recent bottoming is that it gets rid of the uncertainty (that the stock mkt may bottom). With the uncertainty out of the way, w a little correction along the way, now it's full speed ahead.

For what it is worth we are now well within the point in the historical cycle where we should expect the bull market to turn into a bear market for 6 months to a year and a half. It may not happen yet, but it will happen eventually.
