Is The Glass Half Empty?


Who are You?
Are you "The glass is Half Empty or Half Full" person?
One thing we do know we know who Warren Buffet is, "A simple rule dictates my buying: Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful", Warren Buffett.
Did you feel more comfortable investing when the market was at 14000 (High), or now when the market is at 7500 (low)?

Generally, we tend to "feel" most comfortable with, and choose to buy investments, that have begun to develop a positive track record or those that have already gone up. Conversely, we are less comfortable with investments that are currently "out of favor" or are down in performance and tend to either sell these or avoid buying them. This 'cycle of emotion' is common.

Do you believe:
This is the Buying Opportunity of a Lifetime?
or
This is the Time for Panic and Fear?
Would Captain "Sully" have been able to land that plane safely in the Hudson if he allowed panic and fear to overcome him? We all know the answer.
