i didn't lose a cent...i got out of the stock market completely in the summer of 2001...it's tempting to throw it all back in while things are low, and ride it up again, but i don't trust the system at all now...i think the system is fixed to benefit a minority at the expense of the majority and when the minority screw it up for the rest of us, they get bailed out with our tax dollars

you'll get your money back but this roller coaster ride is going to continue for a while, and the dow jones is going to be knocked up and down everytime a new report comes out...i bet you could time your trades to cash in on the reporting schedule:
