Default Market Gyration Headaches
This economy and stock market are going to make me lose what hair I have left. As I have posted previously, I invest in a range of dividend paying stocks. Most are mlp's but I have a number of other "non-pipeline" stocks as well. While these investments have stood up very well even through the crash of 2008, it is difficult to watch the volatility that is going on today. I realize that as long as the companies I have stock in do not cut their dividends, then the day to day gyrations of the market do not effect my income at all. But these last 6 months make me wish that I was wealthy enough to pull all my money from the market and live on safer investments. Who can guess where we are headed now after Bernanke's statements yesterday?
