it seems that the market is in trouble,,,,i think primarily not only because of the housing situation,,and the banking freeze on loans,,,but primarily they are deliberately fixing to crash the dollar to bring about a world currency..... I think hard assets in hand are your best best,,,and for investments ,,Gold is the best option,,it will be valuable long after the dollar,euro,and yen are just footnotes,,,in history... if you have a 401k,, i think your fixin to watch it dissolve Am i wrong? What say U?
