How Bad Is The Stock open market Gonna Crash This Week?
After the Hoilday I think we see a 500 point drop surrounded by 1 hour. 1500-1750 loss for the short week? Thoughts?Answers: If anyone truly knew this for sure, they could put together a bunch!!
God only know ( literally)
maybe the folks in australia where on earth its morning Tuesday
at 7 30 PM central here !
Ill email my aussie mate immediately !
I also see the market going down this week, but not as much you are dictum. The market is going thru an adjustment due to several factor's.
For myself I will be waiting for my rates refunds so that I can reward down on some bills, invests in some stocks, reserves bonds, and mutual funds.
If the stock market crashed within 1929, then why is it still around after almost 80 years of doing business?
You could be right. Based on the futures right presently, tomorrow could be a horrendous day. But they enjoy circuit breakers in place to shut down the market at certain points.
What to do near mutual funds?
These are usually low risk, but right now its dropping approaching crazy. Is it better to ride out this semi-recession or sell it immediately?Answers: If you are in in a minute, let it be. Dont trade. Mutual funds are meant to sit for the long-term. This is a 1-3 year take on market. Wait it out. And remember, "you havent lost money until you sell".
Ride out it.
There are several reason to say this:
First of adjectives, even professional investors aren't very obedient at timing the market's turns up and down. Do you think you'd be better? (I don't deem I am.)
Second, you do run the very TRUE risk of selling near the bottom. Is it the bottom very soon? I don't know -- see above.
Third, studies have repeatedly shown that the most big factor in total return (for long-term investors, anyway) is asset allocation -- that is to say, to maintain your target allocation to stocks vs. bonds, and to domestic vs. international, etc.
Last, if you're a long-term investor, feat like one. Don't agree to the market's craziness infect your thinking.
If your under 50 HOLD
( after later look at the funds fees when the open market is at a high
and move to no nouns low fee index funds)
Over 50 HOLD
Over 60
you be nuts to be in the open market
Don't sell. With the marketplace down now is a angelic time to buy more, the prices are down. History shows that after all drops the marketplace rebounds.
Stock bazaar?
i am getting really irrated with this cnbc crap..i dont even awareness like logging on to my portolio or turning on the tv right presently thts how nauseated i am feeling right very soon...now the item is tht i dont know whether to sell or droop in at hand..i am diversified in my stock portfolio around 70% is in stocks-tech, solar, worldwide etf, utilities, financial, overseas stock..and 30% gic account.
i invested the appendage of dec 2007 and hadn't added to my positions.
i can ride this wave for a year. Will things start picking up by at tiniest March so I can cut my losses or you think its freshly a downhill slope from here or should I just vend as soon as possible?
Answers: Sorry to hear that you bought into the CNBC pump and dump at the peak of the BULL marketplace. I am afraid that a recession is on its way but for already hear. There may be some small bounces that you might be able to deal in on to raise lolly. Long term, the open market always comes posterior, but your losses are real within the mean time. I do not expect things to receive better by March 2008. The market might turn contained by late summer and drop due to election optimism.
My crystal globe is a little foggy, but historically, if you are surrounded by good, solid companies, you'll be OK. You of late have to desire if you have the fortitude to hang down in at hand or not. If you are going to lose sleep at night, afterwards sell. Wait for prices to turn lower, and buy back at a cheaper price.
Personally I enjoy never had nouns in timing the flea market. I buy year after year, and when prices are lower (like now) I consider it a "sale" compared to what i paid concluding year.
There is a LOT of conflict going on..subprime, presidential election year, alien high grease prices, new giant gold prices, the feed stuck between lowering the value of the dollar and worrying nearly inflation.. It's not easy..
So, move to safer stocks similar to QID, SDS which move OPPOSITE to the market, or GLD..or "staples" similar to PG, KO, PEP, people other need mouthwash :-)
It's the row between greed and fear that make the market!
Good Luck
person diversified doesnt help if its a take on market, it didnt 5 years ago. I recommend to sit this year out or budge into comodities.
