Emotions

Noone is immune from the regret of declining values in an advance, nor enduring counter trend rallies in bear markets. Both are unerving, you may wish them away, pray them away, or make good deeds your daily recourse in these periods in hopes of earning "good karma" but markets will wiggle. So, essentialy we MUST accept this, it's a part of the game. So for 7 weeks , we have seen markets decline... but tell me of the prior 14!!!! or more... we have had many good months of advances a bull market will digest, wiggle,  and consolidate these advances. This is essentially what Mr Market has been doing. In spite of all the "news"... which has as much value as do scary clowns that jump up at you in the funhouse, the trend remains up.
