I don't see "relief" manifesting for many people around me. <BR/><BR/>The stock market might rally, but that would be the least impactful sort of rally that could happen.<BR/><BR/>We're already having a more rapid and severe crash than the Great Depression -- it makes sense, since credit reached unprecedented levels. So that is another basis for questioning any historically-based specific notinos of timing.Aaron Krownehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10625220296615695247noreply@blogger.com
