Exactly. Long-term, this is a blip. Nothing more, nothing less. I'm generally the buy-and-hold type. I won't be 65 for 24 more years, so I'm not worried about this at all. For me any temporary downturn in the market is nothing more than dollar cost averaging as I regularly acquire.

Short-term, it's meaningful. If you're an active short-term investor, you need to have your finger on the pulse of all things like this.
I remember a friend of mine, smart guy, asked me how leveraged and inverse ETFs and mutual funds should be used.  He wanted to bet against oil markets one time.  I just said, not by guys like you.  Talk about playing with matches while soaked in kerosene. 

For every John Paulson there are 100 others with the same idea, they just get the timing all wrong.  You'll get your face crushed.

Exactly. I like the "face crushed" thing too. I think I'll use that.

No, he claimed to have beaten roulette, which was my analogy to trying to time the market.


CDawg knows more about this than me, as far as the beating roulette claims go.

No, I just said it.  Paulson?  I cant remember the last public statement I've heard from him.  He's reclusive as any big fish out there.

A useful reminder, there's always somebody on the other side of your great idea (trade).

Since this is a cfb board, the face crushing ties into the subject.  Larry Munson described a late UGA TD vs the Vols in 2001 the same way.  'We stepped on their face with a hobnail boot and broke their nose.  We crushed their face.'

Btw, even Paulson managed to get crushed a few years after nailing the subprime call in 07/08.
