    Anatomy Of A Bear

    I don't think you should look at the drop of the DOW of 2001-2003, but at the drop of the NASDAQ. After all it was a tech bubble. The credit bubble however, has more to do with the DOW now. So expect the DOW to do what the NASDAQ did back then.

    Reassuring my Wife

    well i would say.. get a f/t account of $10k.. lose the 10k, stop with trading.

    GS, $12B in bailout then $14B in bonuses

    If you have money to pay dividends and bonuses and it is more then a billion (not including normal salaries), you dont need billions of money from bailouts. Also, the 10k+ employees from lehman brothers would love to get a job at goldman sachs, provided a goldman sachs employee left the firm...
