I Love Trying To Find The Stock Market Bottom. I Hate Trying To Find The Top.

Posted by Sean | Posted under Investing | October 29, 2008

I had just enough time to unload my little trading account from cash back into emerging markets Tuesday morning. It was a less than perfect entrance, but I’m up over 12% despite today’s last-minute selloff. Probably more if the after-hours means anything.

Now the hard part.

Realistically, how much can we expect from any of these relief rallies?
