Hmm, maybe time to start, "Official Let's Lose a Lot of Money Off Stocks Thread."

I reside in the House of Pain.

I thought I made such a slick move in a fantasy league, getting into WB after it dropped 30% Friday. Now I hear each $10 of WB is turning into, maybe, $1 of C? Ouch!

And I would have bet money on a market up-move this morning after the bail-out moved ahead over the weekend. Shows what I don't know...

if we don't see a bailout by this weekend i think we can see a 5% drop in all the major indexes come monday.

bailout = inflation + lower dollar + higher taxes
so what now?
