” Everything we save now stays in cash until things look more stable....”
...yep, that’s what’s going on in our house too.
I’m all cash, plan on staying that way for awhile. I agree with the above posters - the September crash was the result of market manipulation and the bubble now is more manipulation by the same folks. The September manipulation was to sway the election results, the manipulation now is to convince Americans that everything is getting better. But the only problem is that the fundamentals are all wrong for a recovery.
