Wow! Some kind of volatile week in the market, huh? Two giant financial industries are bought out by private banks and one is rescued by our goverment? Can this be good? The answer is it can, as you can see by the market openings this morning. Although I am certainly against a big brother government, there is a time when we must demand watchdogs to watch those dogs who are watching our money!! I know it seems like this is the worst market ever, but believe me everyone one was saying the same thing or worse in 1980 and 1987. Be patient, don't be reactive and just ride it out. Left to it's own devices, the market always has and always will correct itself.
