Nope, the markets aren't settled down, but , hey, that's what it is like in a bear market.The news get magnified in such an atmosphere of pessimism, but to sell off, people have to begin to fear and doubt that life will never return to normal again.EVER.

It's maybe about the only common denominator in all the bear markets I've been in , and that is the "atmosphere" about them.Only when there's no one left to sell will it be over, and right now, I'm not sure about all the weak holders of stock having sold off.Lots of people still ride it all the way down, hoping against hope that things will turn in their stock, etc...and then sell at the bottom when they have finally given up.

I bet i could turn someone into a good trader/investor if ALL they had was a keen grasp of human nature and could understand psychology, plus be willing to work hard at honing that skill.
