Any suggestions about what I should do in this crazy stock market....?
here is my story. I started with 100K in mid 90s and it made it to 540K by 2000. held on and it went back down to 190K by 2003...held on and it is now back at 530K plus I have put over 100K into a new home downpayment....getting worried here..should I pull it all out and buy bonds or keep on riding the bull? I don't want to pay tons of capital gains but I also don't want same thing happen as it did from 2000-2003! Thanks.

It's a catch 22!!!!! But u made ur money!!!!!
Stock market's supposed to go up and I don't think it'll go down for the next couple of years unless there is a disaster like 9/11!!!!!

Don't worry about capital gain as if you make money, u'll pay the tax, otherwise u don't!!!!!

There is, of course, no answer to your question.

I am holding until 3Q08 earnings season. Until then I am taking as many opportunities to get liquid for buys after the next down swing.

So my advice is stay in the market where it makes sense until 9/30/08. When you think you need to take a gain between now and then park the proceeds in the best available liquid asset and wait for the market to go down, then buy buy buy.

two words STOP LOSSES!

Delete in stages protect your assets and if you have had them for over a year your taxes are much lower (for now) than if u held them for less than a year.

You should consider diversifying your investments. Real estate is a great investment, but definitely requires some experience or luck, as it's difficult to get started without knowing what you're doing. Let me know if you want some information or help on getting a foot into the real estate business.

I would grit my teeth and stick with stocks. Remember that even with the drop you've still pulled a tremendous return over the last decade, and I'd expect that between the upcoming biotech and nanotech revolutions the markets should continue to hike sharply upward over the next few decades.

If you are worried about the near term (and I know where you're coming from there) I'd recommend switching money into stocks that would likely be able to wether a recession reasonably well. For example no matter what happens people will still spend money on healthcare, and you can now buy Genentech for only about 25 times earnings (based on its EPS release yesterday). I'd expect that JNJ (which has been trading sideways for years) is probably also due for a pop.

Buy oil stocks they are only going to go up. Look at Santos Ltd. an Aussie stock that trades Nasdaq under Stosy.

I suggest you to hire a Portfolio Manager with a least a decade of experience in the Stock Markets like myself.

It seems you don't know what you are doing.
