Only if you're "gambling". If you do your homework and invest wisely the risk is very minimal.

If he owns this rally, then will you accept that he owns when it goes back down or just moves sideways? If you want him to take credit then from this day forward he has to accept the blame? No more blaming bush, Obama brought it up so now if it goes down it is his fault?
You agree?

It's never a done deal until you sell and put the money in the bank. The rest is just a roller-coaster ride. It ain't over 'til it's over.

You can call what I did pure luck if it suits anyone. I never claimed to be an expert. I got out at the right time.
Sandhusker said:I got out nearly 2 years now when the DOW hit 14,000. I've been waiting for a time to get back in. If we didn't have a socialist administration, I'd be back in now. If people come to their senses and stop him before he does any further damage, I'll get back in. If Obamacare and/or cap and bankrupt go through, I'm definitely moving everything offshore.

Got back in and made a bigger bundle. Got out just before things went to hell under Clinton. Got back in the down market and made a bigger bundle. Got out just before the bust under Bush junior. I am buying stock now. Just hope history repeats itself.

Corporations are cutting back costs tremendously, laying off workers, etc., thus profit margins seem to be doing OK. Even though sales are at the bottom, the balance sheets look to be better than they were just a few years ago.
The P/E ratios are fooling the traditional stock buyers and stocks will be scary when the true pictures show through at about the time the recession starts to recede.
