Lets put this market in perspective

Post by GeorgeBush »

What will it take to recoup a 40% loss? Lets see. You start with $100,000 and take a 40% hit. You now have $60,000. To make it back to $100,000, YOU NEED A 67% GAIN.

So the question is, how many years will it take to achieve a 67% gain :?:

Maybe the G-7 will help speed this up since they are planning to stand up the ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT with Bush at the G-7 meeting!

political leaders are discussing the idea of closing the world's financial markets while they rewrite the rules of international finance.

It depends. If you kept it all in the G-Fund and the fund had an annualized yield of 3% it would take about 19 or 20 years.
