Quote from jr07:
During last year and even during the beginning of this year I lost a lot of money being long stocks, which made me aware and awake to short selling. I only began trading in mid-2007.
Problem I have now is I think I took it too far.. mostly fueled by blogs and opinions like zerohedge, xtrends, etc. I have now turned into a "Perma Bear" and I have been calling timber since June. I keep telling everyone markets going to crash anytime soon, making a fool of myself and losing yet more money in the process.
It seems to me being a perma bear is probably the wrong choice. After all, stocks are by nature there to go up right?
I cant believe how stupid Ive been.. its very sad
