While the s p 500 is much more representative of the broader market. I always mention it at the top of the show, and given that it broke down below 10 today, its a signal that there is a lot les fear now than at any time in a decade. We have to deal with this. Are we right to not be afraid . So a certain degree yes, the market hasnt moved much in ages,
