As long as there is no available credit companies will continue to lose money. Maybe once banks start giving credit again (if they do) the stock market will turn around, but of course you know a mandatory withdrawal of 401k stocks is just around the corner for the early investors of that program. Which means many millions of dollars leaving the market every month. You are much better off with tax liens if you can get them, or maybe insurance bonds. Though I really don't know much about insurance bonds. Maybe oil futures might be good. Still think its a good time to buy?

Maybe if he did tax liens, tax notes, or mortgage notes... Actually you could do better than 12%. The problem is that you can’t find a mutual fund that will make 12% per year.
