    Stock market 'freak out': Dow dips 460 points

    What's driving this freak out? Investors have been spooked by gloomy economic numbers, another health worker testing positive for Ebola, plummeting energy prices and continuing concerns about Federal Reserve policies.

    It's all Obama's fault in 3, 2, 1......

    Buy food. It is the only thing that will have any value in another couple of months.
    My beliefs are a distillation of what I was taught as a child and what I observe as an adult.

    It rains a lot here got the water covered. Taters with eyes get cut up and planted. I don't have a portfolio to worry about so I may jump out of my basement window after the crash.

    It is not a freak out. Calm down.

    Wake me up when it drops 10%.

    Meanwhile don't sell. Prepare to buy.

    The Fed announced the end of QE3. I suspect that will take time to resolve itself.
