Someone I trust in the "biz" noted that a brave, astute investor could have made a 60% ROI in the last few weeks.

It's a wonderful, emerging and ever-shifting set of opportunities for the the brave and the wise.

It will be K-mart "blue light specials" in the markets for a little while I suspect. Good time to buy if you have the cash and the time to wait it out.
