That's fine in absolute terms but I just saw a WSJ blog post showing that it doesn't even crack the 10 worst days on a percentage basis. To put it in perspective, the crash in October of '87 was over 22% in a single day. I agree with you - too many Chicken Littles out there. Good stuff Roland.

Yesterday I was telling my wife that if I had money I would be buying when people are crying. I do feel for those close to retiring though. Thanks a bunch.
