When’s the last time we were in a bear market? 1990?

Actually, I think 2002. But it was quite short, only a month or so.

Works for me. My gold & silver are still through the roof, and I’m 15% ahead of where I was eight years ago. Mama like! :)

The market declines as the popularity of Obama increases.

Connection?
