have never studied nor witnessed any recession/meltdown like this in my career nor in financial history books ... this may not be a double/triple dip bottom ... this one may RE-WRITE the history books I fear ... we may be seeing history in the making ... a century later the historians will refer to the Meltdown of 2008-9 with fear & loathing BUT we today have an opportunity of a lifetime , if we are smart AND lucky .... to make historical profits from this vicious cycle IF we are sitting on hoards of hard cold cash to invest at or near the true bottom
