 Stock prices are mighty LOW. If now is not a good time to buy equities just when will it be? Could the market go lower? You bet. Could it move up sharply leaving you on the sidelines with a sack of cash and nothing to invest in because prices have gone too high?

One always good stock buying strategy is dollar cost averaging. Buy a little bit each and every month and do it rain or shine. Even Warren Buffett agrees with this.

Remember there is never a perfect time to buy stocks or bonds. The markets are always in flux. There is always worry about something. I've had people tell me it will be a better time to buy when prices go even lower. You bet. And if it goes higher without you having a chance to buy at some hoped-for lower price level where does that leave you?

Good luck.

   Jump in and buy now? from basstage #12871  10/20/2008 7:05:48 PM
 Now might be the time to buy some of your favorite stocks that were beaten down. Market moved up today, and rumor
has it that FED may lower rate tomorrow 1%. Now could be a prime buying opportunity. On paper I've seen a big loss with everyone in the last few months. But, buying low can make up for it when markets become more rational!!! GOOD LUCK!
Any way, enough of this ...lets go FISHIN"!!!!
