that's the reason demand is low. no pay increases.

Sure, Bob. Keep telling yourself that and don't forget to blame a
street in New York for your financial problems.
I just checked my 401k and it is up 4.3% this year already. Last year it
was up 15.8%. Sucks to be me.
do the math. how much do you have to GAIN to make up for a 35% LOSS
like the average 401K lost in 2009?
if you cant figure it out, i'll let you know
and your 20% increase?
i'll give you a hint: it's not enough
Look up dollar cost averaging. Many people, including me, made some
outstanding buys when the market went to hell.
look up how long it takes to recover from a 35% drop in an equity.
you cant do the math, obviously.
If you let it sit there and stare at it with your blind eyes it will
take a lot of time to recover. If you open your wallet and but more
when it's low you can make some serious bucks. I know the math very
well. So does my accountant! Once again, blind man, look up dollar
cost averaging before you post a lame response.
