This Is Capitulation
This is capitulation:
- “Whatever money you may need for the next five years, please take it out of the stock market right now, this week” - Popular financial guru Jim Cramer on the Today Show this morning.
- The S&P dropped more than 200 points - 17% - over the last 6 trading days at its low today. That’s a years worth of losses in 6 days.
- The Fear Index (VIX) spiked up over 58 - higher than at any point during the 2000-2002 bear market.
- 50% of the stocks traded on the NYSE (1644 out of 3294) are currently at 52 week lows - totally unheard of.
I put a good chunk of money to work today. You shoud think about doing the same.
