Hey, everybody, thanks for the discussion. My original post has been sitting on the shelf for a week and a half.

And, btw, poster #3, please, no need to yell at me. (all those all-caps) My writing can tend to have a bit of a hyperbolic bent sometimes. I am not really a novice — but, even so, especially so, I would never yell at a novice who wants to talk about thoughts on investing. (And I am not yelling at you, just a little reminder about those all-caps.)

We could be headed for a buying opportunity. (euphemism) CD rates are creeping up. Inflation is the big elephant in the room — well, one of them anyway. I think the market feels skittish and unreal, artificially high with buybacks.

(blueash, I know what you mean. It is a big picture. A house of cards?)
