Oh, and pay close attention to that bottom in February 2003, and ask yourself what might have ended such a precipitous fall and coincided with the beginning of the largest bull run in history. 

I'm not a tin foil hat nut, but I'll reveal something about myself: for the very first time in my life, I am scared.
