The trick will be realising when things are becoming known again, before most others.
Well some of us don't have to cause we're already all in, that's only a Lemming problem.

I totally agree, we have max. out our credit line for the business and parked as a defensive measure and changed main trading bank accounts from suppliers with direct debit access to accounts. Our CFO is looking rather tired and his team has been run ragged on the collection front and changing terms of trade . We are just a medium sized business. Perhaps I should buy him a beer on friday night?

Agreed. And post close, futures were down another 100 pts within 15 seconds, only to rebound and go up 100 about 2 mins later. And now 3 mins after close futures are down 50 again. What a volatility.

Short & big sharp falls - that's the way I like them.
The alternative of the markets falling 2% every week for 4 months will be like torturous slow death from a thousand cuts.
Another 10% tonight in US on the cards.

Does the fastest bear in history mean the fastest recovery?

no in my opinion . why your get bounces , dont look at them as start of another bull market probably be bear rallies.
when you get a bear it takes time to build a base even after the virus cure found or what ever ( companies downgrades take time to come thru and profits lost are not necessary regained)
