This is a real bear market, its getting dark outside, people are therefore bored and at home. As the market tanks, people be licking their wounds trying to make themselves feel as good as possible with real things now, not hopes of better to come. Christmas is always the catalyst of a bull run historically, doubt it this year. People will be saving as much as they can because they know economic pain is coming. This year it will just be depressing and thats just how it is. Its a negative feedback loop situation we are in unfortunately.
