Well the Bottom is In: Royal Bank of Scotland says "Sell Everything!"

Whenever you get a call that says to panic sell everything you know the bottom is in.
Western stocks will fall by 20 percent. Oil will trade at $16 a barrel. Emerging markets will crumble as China assumes the role of Lehman Brothers in the not so eagerly awaited sequel to the 2008 financial crisis.
That preview of the next 12 months is brought to you by the Royal Bank of Scotland.

“Sell everything except for high-quality bonds,” RBS credit chief Andrew Roberts writes in a note to investors that reads like the voice-over in a trailer of a finance-themed horror film. “This is about return of capital, not return on capital. In a crowded hall, exit doors are small.”

Whenever you have this kind of hysteria you know the you can start to buy and you can grow off of that point.
