Funny stock market saying
A co-worker and I chat about the stock market now and again, mostly on days with big swings, and he had a funny one in light of today's big downward movement:
"Just when you're about the accept the warm embrace of the loving stock market, you realize that isn't a hug coming towards you, it's a foot, aimed straight at your nuts"

from the Bogleheads board:
The less I need to take risk, the more of a bear and a "market timer" I become. It's easy to hoard cash and take a penalty for it when the consequences of doing so matter less.

But why use the DJIA as an indicator of the overall market? It’s an index of 30 stocks. The market has thousands...

And here I thought it was going to be 'What goes up must come down'.
