I’ve always been amazed at how quickly investors forget what it feels like to lose money. One of my favorite economists, whom will remain unnamed, is a constant stock market cheerleader.

Crash!
I have been investing since the spring of 1964, and I do not remember being as uncomfortable with the health of the financial markets as I am today.
