Umm.. I don't think you have to worry about sort of stuff around here..:crazy: Most of us cannot even afford quads. :lol: :TrikesOwn

I don't really follow this stuff but I can tell the economy may be slowing a bit. Or at least that's what the boss told me right before he laid me off. :rolleyes:

YOUCH! I seen it this morning right after the opening bell and it was already down 100pts then, I didn't know it tanked that much though. I bet the forex traders are having a ball.

I lost around 7300 today. *****WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE!!!! It will come back tomorrow. My brother is a broker. He turned off his cell phone shortly after the opening bell. I'm glad I don't try to handle my own investments. I would have been flipping out. I guess "high risk" really means "high risk"

I bought a couple of stocks today that I have been watching.one thing I have found out over the years is that good stocks stay good in the normal ups and downs of the stock market.today meant very little.the people who sold today will wish they bought in 3 months.

Like someone mentioned, its up and down from day to day. You will go crazy if you check every day. If the "experts" are right, we are in a world of problems.

I took a big hit in my 401k account, but I'm not changing anything. I'm still way ahead of the game. It will go back up in due time.

While it sucks to lose money having it in high risk. If your below 40 it is the way to go. The question I want to know I how much in fees did all those online trade your own stock places make yesterday. What is it like 9 bux a trade or something.

It's been like this everywhere. I know for a fact in my field of business ( I'm a mortgage broker) the lenders have done a HUGE turn around with 100% loans and no money down deals because they have lost millions with buy backs becuase of forclosures and such. This was monday and now I here the stock market goes down tremendously it's not surprising at all. It's time for the market to finally level out and be back to normal.
