    More than likely, directly or indirectly, you're being effected. We live in a global economy. The world is effected if the economy is bad in the U.S.

    I own lots of stocks and it bothered me to see it fall like it did, but I never invest money I can afford to lose. Most likely after riding this out I will quit stocks for good after it comes back up a bit.

    I had invested a part of my hard earned money in some of the blue chips companies but the net worth of these stocks had so far been eroded by almost 70 per cent but on Monday, the stocks staged a comeback and hope it would recover in the days to come...

    That was bad! But those who bought the banking and financial stocks had the worse blow some dropping to just 5% of the stock prices (if they do not file Chapter 11).

    Financial and realty cos. are heavily dependent on liquidity for growth/expansion.....

    Since there is severe liquidity crunch throughout the world...these cos. are equally effected.

    I lost quite a few, pretty sad for the past few weeks. I'm not optimistic about next couple of months. I'm in a wait and see mode now.

    No. I take some shares on small price. Now i decided to hold these shares. Stock market moves on feelings of people. When the people feared, then the market down.

    Well it has more or less returned what it has gotten that day and is back to square one and looks worse than ever.....Even after the trillions of dollars of injection, investors are as fearful as ever, even more so. One silver lining is that crude is is half the level of its peak which should alleviate all of us suffering from the inflationary effects of crude oil prices.

    in one way or another everybody is suffering from this stock market fall...directly or indirectly...unfortunately a lot of things depend on such fluctuations.
