Careful, you are going to upset the permabulls on this forum. I noticed a majority of them went into hiding today. I don't blame them.

Bulls4L...but seriously I don't think that there are many permabulls here but rather there's a lot of people that don't think it's very easy/possible to predict the market and they believe that over time it will go up. Thus they keep saying that putting your money in for the long run is the best most people can do.

the market goes up over time because of the constant de-valuation of the the currency you measure it against.
