It's hard for me to tell whether this is just a "correction" (massive deflation after exuberance) or an actual meltdown. I had predicted the actual meltdown for September of 2015, but I guess this is pretty close. I wonder how this will affect my life, if at all. "The New York Stock Exchange said it will halt trading for 15 minutes if the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index drops 7 percent." [0] How is it fair that the marke…

Oh look, an opportunity to buy.
For me, the situation is such a mess that I don't think we're close yet to what I would consider a buying opportunity.
One saying is "buy when there's blood in the streets"... but I don't think we're there yet.
