I would bet that most are like me and have their doubts due to a lack of understanding of the magnitude and effect on the future.
I will remain invested as I am with no change and hope I have done the correct thing. I know from talks with the banks I use in business that the credit markets are where the real trouble lies. If I had to borrow money for my business even as well as we have done the money would simply not be there at present.
I have no clue how the housing market can ever stabilize without the credit people need to buy...The effects on consumer credit...the effects of so many Americans in so much debt....confusing and a bit un-nerving! Tough to support what you don't truly understand.

700 billion is a BIG mistake.

we are pushing 11 trillion on the deifict.

so if home prices come down- that isnt so bad.

IMO the wages have stagnated starting in 1981.

salaries are 2nd rate.

some where the axis must balance.

so this is a component of what is going on.

the fed is WRONG.

when did we have extra $? 60 billion to Iraq here and there. this is MUCH bigger then Iraq.

we can not solve every problem by throwing money at it.
