Open below 7000?

[Hal3]

I do sincerely apologize for the recent downturn in the market.
I bought equities for the first time since 8/2007 on 2/20 and 2/23 so I feel responsible for the sudden crash.
I should have warned everyone in advance.
My bad.

What's done is done.
When do you plan to sell?

Did you sell all your equities in 8/07 or just haven't bought any more?

Congratulations on your call for an open below 7000, and condolences for having bought. This may be the first time that someone besides me caused the market to go down by buying at the "low."

on the bright side, perma-bear bob prechter said recently to close out your shorts if you have any. don't have a link, but read a summary of this in the last week somewhere

I bought at the low, too. Back at DOW 11,000.

We could do a song about the Dow to the tune of "In The Year 2525", but going in reverse: "When the Dow's 9595...."

Blame me!

I liquidated my entire IRA to cash 8/2007.
Luckiest day of my life.
I printed out the email to my Smith Barney guy for framing.
