Most "Expert" Investment Advice? Feel Free To Ignore It

FYI: If one reads the daily spew of investing advice flowing forth from the Internet these days, it seems one could get nothing but confused by the opposing opinions now being rendered on stocks, bonds, or you name it. Of course, this has probably always the case as the pundits line up on either the bull or bear side of any type of investment in good times and bad.
You should be aware though that, typically, a bull market breeds more bullishness among the populace, while a bear market, once established, does just the opposite. This logically means that people become most enthusiastic about investing when prices are high and least enthusiastic when prices are low, a potentially dangerous fact about how things almost always work.
