I'm well aware of the benefits of a down market. As I would assume you should know, predicting where it might bottom out is not stupid but strategic as to when to buy back into the market with a significant investment. Shorting is not an attractive option for me at the moment due to my overall portfolio performance of the past year and due to the fact that I have my daughters tuition staring me in the face. Poverty is just around the corner to the left. I prefer at this point to take 3 rights to get there.
