[quote=scaredyclassic][quote=XBoxBoy]This thread has been great for me. When this thread was posted, I was tempted, but didn’t sell anything. (instead I have continued my steady dribble of savings into the stock market)
This thread has confirmed for me:
1) that I should never take advice from people on the internet
2) that I am not a speculator, that for me the only viable strategy is buy and hold.
3) I am not able to time the market, not even close.
I need to see these sort of threads to be reminded of these things.[/quote]

Agree x 10 with your agreement. Also I’ve learned:
The government can prop things up more than I thought possible. I thought they did a lot after the 2008 meltdown but that had almost no effect compared to what happened this time. Trillions can do that I guess.
