I will never understand the stock market.
Boy, I hate the stock Markets!
They reacts like a nervous, unexperienced, unreasonable, teen age girl that misinterpret ANY signal she gets from a boy.
Here is today’s headline: “Dow industrials down as much as 230 points as markets train sights on Athens. Greeks in the streets, Brits at the polls, bulls in retreat.”
Now, maybe I am not a bright woman - but WHY is this bad news?
The European Union just did a “Humane” thing and reached its hand to the failing Greek economy- this sent the stock markets spiraling down.
In return to the helping hand, the Greek parliament was required to put into action an “Austerity Plan” or, in other words, some “belt tightening” measures to bring their spending into line with their earnings so they can become stronger and not crash again.
The Greek parliament approves government austerity plan
Now the Greek Parliament under guard as Greeks protest austerity measures as lawmakers approve deficit-reduction plans.
“The Brits are at the poles”- well DAAAAA! - isn’t is election time in England?
Where is the “BAD” news in that?
Conclusion: I will never understand the Stock Market- I just ride/ surf the waves. (stupid?)

Here is what Richard Ferri from Forbes said today:
"How To Retain Your Sanity In A Volatile Market"
By Richard A. Ferri
"Are you prepared for the next terrifying moment? Turn off the TV, take the dog for a walk--and settle on a stock allocation you can stick with."
Turn off the TV and Walk the dog? - I guess it is a GOOD investing advice as any other...
As an artist- I could get paid to give this "Investment" advice too.
Satyadev:
The investment advisors without exception say that we will be better of investing in stocks in the long run. I don't know if they understand that in the long run we are all dead!
