Rick:

That’s why people need to SAVE. So they have cash to invest at an appropriate time. Credit is what got us into this problem in the first place.

Oliver:

No. Or at least, I seriously doubt it. Of course, if you have experience as an index structurer, I’m sure you could create your own. And if you do, I know of some companies in London hiring such people.

JLP et. al:

EMH is a fraud, IMHO Check out Andrew Lo’s AMH for a much more reasoned view. Investing really is still in the dark ages, given the interdependence on human emotion.

Hehe, at the office we’ve got a pool going.

I’m in for 6800 +/- 50 before the election before sustained recovery.

The markets aren’t overreacting nearly as much as the government is overreacting and/or would if in control of the entire market. Nothing is purely efficient. It’s a question of comparison and cost-benefits.

I wouldnt borrow money to invest anyways… That is a BAD idea.. What I’m doing is just dollar cost averaging once a month using what I have left over after my bills are paid… plus it spreads my investing money out over time instead of just lump summing a ton of money, just in case the bottom hasnt come yet.

This crystallizes the credit problem; there are MANY bargains out there but no one has the cash to borrow to invest. Why doesn’t a corporate raider buy out Charles Schwab and take the cash and sell off the assets?

The answer? NO ONE WILL LEND! It’s like the entire Picasso art collection for sale at $1.99 but no one has any cash on hand and no one is willing to lend anyone a couple of bucks for the deal of the century!

Timing is everything, those that have cash on hand will make a killing over the next few months when things return to normal.
