Micro > I think so. But if you really were a hard core believer that this whole thing is going to come tumbling down, be smart and SHORT like crazy the companies or INDICES you think are going to fall the most and hardest.


Be very careful shorting stuff dudes. (And dudettes.)

Something I remember reading from the Motley Fool once upon a time . . .

When one invests 'long' the most one can lose is the dollars one invested.
But there is no theoretical upward limit as to how much one can make.

When one invests 'short' the most one can make is what one got for
selling the borrowed shares. But if the share price skyrockets upward
to the lower stratosphere and beyond . . . Well, theoretically there
is no limit on how much one could lose.

My dear captain,

IO make money in BULL markets AND in Bear markets. I invest in different types of instruments and vehicles and when Bear market hits, start buying BONDS.

As of the moment, some of my investment portfolios are tied to the market. I also have an equal portion that is invested in other things other than that. Like our friend Zim, I own some shares of dividend stocks. Not many differento nes but some...

Life Insurance is another thing you can make a good 8 % rate of return that is steady.

In the history of the Stock markets, they go up, and then they corect themselves and go down. Even the crash in the 1930's was just a blip correction and then the buying opportunities started again.

Are most stocks overvalued today?

I think so. But if you really were a hard core believer that this whole thing is going to come tumbling down, be smart and SHORT like crazy the companies or INDICES you think are going to fall the most and hardest.

You can make a killing doing that as well. So you can make money in a BULL or a Bear nmarket...

This run is not yet finished and is being encouraged and strengthened by our trade policies.

In the meantime, I will just be fat, dumb, and happy....

I really have the FAT and dumb parts down pat.. lol!!!!

Congrats on selling the Subaroooo!!!!

You should open a real garage to make money FIXING people's cars as well as buying, repairing, and reselling cars like you do.

I think you would be highly successful.

yer pal,

micro...

Thumbs Up Very Happy
