Stock markets around the world are having a bloodbath!

and it doesn't look like respite will be here any time soon.

I am worried about a world-wide double-dip recession.

Last I checked about an hour ago, the Asian markets were in a sell off. Too scared to look again!!

Only time will tell!!!

It went up quite a bit late this afternoon. Hope it is not a dead cat bounce.

Still shedding blood! My worries are getting compounded. This is not the end yet. In the coming days, we'll see more volatility and stocks will recover a bit and then drop again, that'd be my guess. No-one seems insulated this time round, America, Europe, even China and other Asian countries.

Who'd have thought that gold would keep climbing like this?! Seems rather contrary to common sense to buy into a continually rising commodity!

I don't think we have seen the worst of it. I am scared for all markets..
