Buying Stocks?
Is now a good time to buy stocks since the market is down?

Yes, now is a good time to buy stock.
No, not because the market is current in a downturn.

No information about future equity returns can be obtained from prior equity returns. If we could, then past equity performance will accurately predict future equity performance, and everyone would be rich.

Unless you have insider information (in which case it is illegal to trade or cause others to trade on that information) or superior ability to decipher knowledge from public information as to form a distinct view about the direction of the equity markets (and be correct), there is no particular “time” that is better than others to invest in equities.

You should not base an equity investment decision, which concerns the future, based on current or prior market performance data alone.

Yes, if you do what the others have said, invest in a company with a solid rep that is low right now. An example, I bought Marvel stock when they were low at $1.25 a share & about a year later that same stock was selling for $30! I knew based on their history with their superhero comics line-Spider-Man,Hulk,etc.. that the $1.25 price was too low.They made the Spider-man & X-Men movies & the stock soared.

It is the best time.

If it is a solid company witha long history of consistent profits then, yes, it is agood time to buy.

My friend, it does not matter what condition the market is in. If your goal is long term, then it is always a good idea to buy stocks. Studies have shown that the majority of the market's long-term returns come from a few select days here and there. Therefore, a long-term investor cannot afford to be OUT of the market, for fear or missing one of these crucial days.

Make sure you do your homework before you do, but yes it is a good time to buy stocks when the market is down. If you are investing in gold, it is also a good time even though normally when the market does bad, gold does well.

Just be careful not to buy into any company you would not shop at! Never invest more than you're willing to lose.

If you've never heard of "dollar-cost averaging" then research those words and you will answer your own question. The concept is centered around buying low in a company that has a pretty solid history, then buying when it goes lower because it will eventually the stock will rise. Like Ford motor company. Last year if you bought when they hit rock bottom, today you could be sitting on several thousand dollars due to their quarterly profit report. The stock rose. Just remember that the stock market is a gamble so invest for the long haul and not the short.
