The problem now is that no one knows what the rules are. We have just witnessed several instances of changing the law. For instance, when one approaches retiremnet one normally increases investments in bonds (safer than stocks). However, our president has decided that bond holders (they actually own equity) in Chrysler will be paid after unions (that do not own equity). All of a sudden bonds are not safer than stock. Before PRESBO the bond holders owned things like inventory, buildings, machinery, and etc. How can one invest in the future when the rules change based on who the players are.
