"A friend recently asked, "Ben, just between you and me, the market is going to crash, right?" My answer was a resounding "yes." The stock market will definitely crash at some point. That's just the nature of the beast... Humans are prone to taking things too far in both directions but that doesn't help predict how far we'll collectively take things during the next melt-up or meltdown. I know for sure there will another market crash at some point. It's something all investors should mentally prepare for. The hard part is knowing when that will be."
