    gotta be equally willing to lose your investment as you are to doubling it with penny stocks

    If you're leaving money in the market long-term, short-term pullbacks are not really relevant either. Only active traders are affected by them. A pullback today is unlikely to affect the valuation of the market 1 or 2 or 5 years from now.

    I think there will be an oversold bounce in the next few days. then if can't get above spx 1870 again, I will go short.

    I think overall portfolio may see a 10% gain or so then will be a 50% decline within 12-18 month. a lot of baby boomers gonna take It hard.
