julietjaquith | Bush Said invest in stock market for retirement now, stock market plumets...what now? |
Bush said to future generations that we should invest in the stock market. Now, the stock market plummets to lows, exactly what should younger generations do who have no financial backing, while these corporate heads seem to be getting anwhere from hundred thousand, if not millions of dollars Should we find a cheap lawyer to sue these people for the millions they are leaving company's with? IE: AIG spends over 400 thousand dollars for a spa/banquett after getting bailed out. |

When the market is down is the best time for young people to get into stocks. Anyone with stock who has 10 years or more until retirement will come out fine. New money in the market will buy more shares, and when the market goes up (and it will), those shares will be worth more.
Stocks go down when more people want to sell than want to buy. If people stopped panicking and held on, the market would stabilize.
Only lawyers ever win in shareholders suits. Your congressmen and women will take care of the execs who are getting away with millions, give them time. |

Don't sell now - or you really will be hurt. This is one of the best times in history to invest. Prices are incredibly low, and if your time horizon is five or more years out, you should be buying hand over fist.
In stock crashes company fundamentals mean nothing. Do you really think Disney will go out of business? Or IBM? Or Apple? Or or all the miners, industrials, or fertilizer companies? The market is trading like no one will eat, drink, buy a car, clothe themselves, or anything - ever again. Yes, we're going to have a recession, but being so afraid that you pull your money out of the market only makes prices go lower. Things will come back again, it's just going to take time.
Instead of wasting your money on a lawyer, use it towards getting a good education. Congress will be going after a lot of the guilty parties and be doing clawbacks where they can prove fraud. And by the way, while I don't condone in the least the risky behavior of AIG's investment division, you should know that that spa weekend was not for AIG employees - they were hosting independent insurance agents trying to get them to endorse and sell AIG insurance products so they can make enough money to pay back that government loan. I agree, though, they could have taken them to someplace that wasn't so pricey.
Another thing - you really can't pin this one on Bush. This subprime mortgage/ reverse-redlining stuff started under the Carter administration. It was supported and modified under Clinton and Bush by Democratic legislation. If there's somebody you want to be mad at, try Christopher Dodd and Barney Frank. They're the ones who screwed up the Community Reinvestment Act by forcing banks to carry such a high percentage of subprime loans, and made it possible for Fannie Mae to loan at an 80 to 1 ratio. |

He said future generations should invest for retirement according to you. The key words are future generations, and retirement. No one should invest in the market if they need money now. The longer you have until retirement the more invested in the market you should be. Contributions buy more when prices are low and the more you will have in the future. As you get closer to retirement the more you should have in fixed income investments. That keeps the principal safe and provides the money you will need in the short term. Thats just a basic rule of investing and has nothing to do with Bush. |

Wait.
Stocks plummet when people take their money out. If everyone would just hold the fk on, it wouldn't be so drastic. Things will get better if people (including businesses) start behaving consciously. |

Ask your congressperson for a bailout. Maybe they could pass a law where they just reset the DJIA back up to 14,000 and we could start all over again like nothing ever happened. We deserve that, this is America after all. Only good stuff is allowed to happen here. |

I really feel sorrow for any young person that would rely on anything Bush has to say about your future. Especially if it involves the stock market. Today it is hard to say where to trush your savings. I guess that is why according to the news there are many people want to buy bigger mattresses and vaults for their savings. |

1) Investing in any stock market requires a long-term strategy to maximise benefits.
2) In general terms, stock markets always rise in value (long-term). However, for various reasons, there are always falls.
3) President Bush also said Saddam Hussein had WMD's, among other well-documented, and very questionable, statements!!! |
