We'll just have to keep our fingers crossed...and hope this works out. I believe that smallcap stocks/exchanges will be the last to recover from this crazy situation. Either this recovery is V shaped, which I am betting on, or maybe it moves sideways for a while, becomes more of a 'stock pickers market'. Either way TLT wins. We'd be a standout darling stock in a blah market/economy, or this whole mess is forgotten 6 months from now. It is sad that this 'could' add more time to this investments time horizon. But only because there will be less eyeballs on TLTs achievements, that could come out any day.
