It's not about "my" opportunity but rather opportunity in general....big difference.
The economy has very little direct effect on the market. But if you chose to believe it does I am happy with that. In fact I hope you convince others. Please buy stock based on the "Great" obama economy.
You don't live in a disconnected world. If you have an opportunity, then there are others who have the same opportunity as you. And when they act on that opportunity, it affects the economy in either a positive or a negative manner.
But you keep switching back and forth. Now you are referring to "the market" which is a different concept from opportunity. Then you say that the economic environment has "almost nil" effect on opportunity, but say that you make money during a bad climate, which nullifies your first statement. Then you encourage others, sarcastically, to take advantage of opportunity based on economic conditions. So you are constantly contradicting your first assertion that economic climate does not affect opportunity. Either it does or it doesn't. Which is it?
