This whole experience has been really strange for me...In anticipation of this meltdown I'm lucky enough to have had a very large percentage of my portfolio 2X short on the indexes (vis-a-vis SDS and SRS) since last November. Yet I still find myself unable to sleep at night. While I'm supremely...

Wow, DOW almost down to 8500. The movement we have seen in the last month is absolutely spectacular (not in a happy way, of course). Have we even seen widespread panic yet....this could TRULY get ugly. Speechless.
