Every time in the past that the stock market has gone down, it has come back up and more. So, that is likely what will happen this time. However, it's not guaranteed. And, this time, the reasons for the market instability are different and varied from the usual ones that cause a downturn. This time, the market is reacting to headlines, one world crisis after another (instability in the European economy, ISIS, Ebola, unrest in Hong Kong, possible instability in North Korea, etc.). Since I don't believe that any of those issues will bring down the world economy, I'm leaving my money where it is on the belief that the market will eventually come back.
Buying. 2015 is shaping up to be a good year for stocks. You will be happy 2-3 yrs from now for buying. I invest long term and send in the checks. I developed the "who cares" answers since I know it comes and goes like waves crashing over the rocks there is no point paying attention until I am 10 yr. out from retirement. At this point up 50% or down 50% would make no difference 20 yrs. later. Alot of my associate discuss their Year to Date returns but i do not because being excited about yearly returns in up markets are for those who need confirmation bias to strengthen their resolve.
The bull market is alive...Lets get paid people. Time is money
Sell some of your stocks if they move up 20-25% from the original buy point.
i'm buying into this market. Everyone always looks for buying opportunities to buy cheap, well here it is starring you right in the face and you want to sell? If tomorrow the market drops another 2-3%, i buy more again!! I'm in it for the long run, and the 75% of stocks i own are value oriented safety stocks that pay 3-5% yield.
Imagine your stocks are cans of tuna fish you have been purchasing with the intention of feeding yourself after you retire....(these are magic cans that never go off, and are delicious & nutritious, even if you dislike tuna, BTW)....
When the price goes DOWN for a few weeks, should you sell the cans you already have? Or would it be smarter to BUY MORE while they are, in effect, "on sale"?
Set them at stop loss so if the prices goes down you won't lose much $$. Its hard to tell you to sell because we don't know don't know what stocks you have, how much you paid for them.
It depends. If investing in major companies like Alibaba, Amazon or google, I would wait until they reach their peak. You should consult a financial adviser for more help.
Hope this helps :)
Sure, sell out.
yes
