But logically stock's should go down and we all know the rich get out first and you are left with the empty bag. Just saying.
Have to disagree with your last sentence. Stock market goes up and goes down but long run it has gone up. Just have to stay the course. Too many people get out when it goes down and never go back in until it is up a bunch.

Timing the market does not work.
