Yeah but the stock market isn't 50% off right now. It's bounce back is temporary and most people should hold cash right now until we really start to see blood in the streets.

It's a game of chicken. Everyone is waiting for other people to sell which will make prices fall so they can buy the dip.

This would be a sound theory if the fed weren't printing money.

The fed, however, is more interested in preventing deflation and/or complete economic collapse, than it is in rewarding prudent investers.
