The good news about the market's July to September 1998 decline is that so far it has created quite a bit of value, especially in the large capitalization area.

concerned corporate five fund good higher late might mutual next start ten term
If you're a trader, I'd be concerned because you might be too late on some stocks, but if you're an investor, start to participate.

blue buying changed chips correction creates opinion russell talk
