At least the price of oil has dropped below $90 a barrel. Too bad it's not reflected at the pumps. It just proves that the price of oil went crazy for no reason except for a bunch of greedy bastards.

Gun Safety Tip #6. When unholstering your weapon it's customary to say "Excuse me while I whip this out "

Hard to when you see an event take place that affects oil and the prices at the pump jump instantly. The reverse is not true.

The overseas markets are tanking as well.
Edit: The gas price issues is BS, by the way.

So with the market being down over 30%, what are you doing with your investments and/or 401k portfolios?
Those of you that have 401k's, are you continuing to invest or are you getting liquid?
---
As for me, I'm going to sit tight on the 401k investments I have, but I'm going to temp. cease further payroll deductions and instead get liquid (cash) on the money I would have otherwise invested.
As for my stocks (Etrade), I'm already down over 40% across the board, so selling now really isn't an attractive option - and the companies I invested in are for the long term anyway; most have EPS over 2.xx/share.
