It's curious how people in the U.S. say we're not in a "Bear Market",
when the value of the U.S. currency has dropped by 50% in the last
five years on international money markets, and the Stock Market is
just about at the same level it was five years ago. That's a 50% drop
in effective market capitalization. Not counting inflation.
