“We bulls”? LOL I know it was an accident but it was funny. Maybe “universal” doesn’t exactly describe it. I know the minority didn’t get us in this mess.

As a realtor who chose to get on the sidelines instead of maintaining a “unbiased” view,during the mania, for my own self interest I am going to feel some righteous vindication faced with an undoing of the house of cards. I will celebrate when I can sell a house(or recommend going long on america)with a clean conscience and that day ,however slowly, could be coming.

I don’t think of the tanking of our economy as threatening. I think it proves we were not doing things right.We will suffer to the extent that our values are out of whack. I value honesty and fair dealings above wealth so I am in the “bring it on” camp.

Although I would be glad to be wrong, I don’t think Chris’ notions are completely unaffected by his positions related to the market(S). If it is true than he is the one with the bias and he starts to look self serving/defensive.
I also don’t think he stays out of the “I told you so mode” when things go his way.
That said,
Best wishes to all
