all part of the normal economic cycle, imo, and something that many of us have been through several times before... we survived the 2000 tech wreck, the '97 asian financial crisis, the early '90s recession, the crash of '87, the recession of '81-'83, the oil shock of '72-'73 and the ensuing recession...
actually, for share traders (as opposed to the average trend-monkey who always prospers only in a rising market), this year has been the very best of times and the most fun for a long time...
