But when I read the story about them, and other “mom and pop” investors rushing to jump back into the booming stock market, a few words crossed my mind.

The more printable ones included “Uh-oh” and “Doom.”

You know how, when you get older, the movies just get so predictable you can hardly bear to go any more? Within the first five minutes you can already tell how the whole story is going to end.

So I’m sorry, but when I read “Mom and Pop Run With the Bulls,” all I could think was, here we go again.

My Journal colleague Jonathan Cheng’s story tells you everything you need to know. Villa and White felt “sucker punched” when stocks collapsed in 2008, he reports. The crash “wiped out half their savings.” They sold out of stocks, put their money in the bank, and “swore off stocks,” presumably forever.

which was the absolute worst thing they could have done

anyone that kept their portfolio intact, is farther ahead now than before the crash

some people let fear run their lives.....the market is a LONG term proposition

if you are going to need the cash in under 5 years....it doesnt belong in the market

if your time horizon is longer...the market is the place to be

selling at the bottom and drawing less than 2% on 10 year treasuries is NOT the answer to wealth creation

To me, you need to have enough to live on in your hands for some times and you can able to ride market's up and down without the emotionally gets involved.

Agreed, but I know way too many individuals and families living paycheck to paycheck with no financial reserves, even though they have significant incomes. I've been there, done that until the stress of living with debt and no financial buffer got too terrifying and unbearable.

Jobs report to send meteor closer to Wall Street. 

[usaone]

Not really. Jan and Feb numbers were revised much higher. March will end up being over 100K. Historically bad weather in March. April will be much better.

[frankq]

Yeah...must be all that worry about the sequester........Thank God the government didn't hire any more people. I know we did.....

Senator on board with NASA plan to 'lasso' asteroid
4 hrs ago


Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., is gung-ho for a plan to send out a robotic ship (hopefully named "Trigger") to capture an asteroid and then "park" it in a high lunar orbit for astronauts to study. Cowboy-esque as it seems, going out and dragging an asteroid closer to Earth would shave four years off the intended mission to visit an asteroid, in the dual objectives of learning how to push away future asteroids on a collision course with Earth and advanced training for a Mars visit. Nelson did not offer a token "yee-haw," though we all know it was implied. [Source]

[Aman A.K.A. Ahamburger]

Crazy isn't Q?  After we lasso the suckers we can bust em up and harvest them for minerals and metals...  YEEE-HAWW! 

[frankq]

Yeah.....But what about all that I-131.......

Well, what they're really after is a scaled up version of "Trigger" that can go out and lasso Planet Nebu and bring it in. That way, the end of times can get here sooner and all the doom and gloomers can rejoice with glee as they dance around the bon fire saying "I told ya so, na-na-na-na-na!!!
