Gray Rock | What is going on with the Stock Market? ? Oh my God !? |
Granted....I'm NEW at this. Only been investing since January. Things were lookin up......portfolio averaging 20+ % gains. Now....ever since the "Fed" puked out his news.....it's all in the toilet! What is going on?
I know....I know...."just ride-it-out"..."stocks are traditionally more profitable than most investments"...I know the song....
But in the meantime......got any Prozac?!
WHAT is going on? |

Um...not to state the obvious, but...it's falling. Markets do that from time to time, and it doesn't necessarily mean that there's anything significant going on. It's just a sign that people are unhappy/uneasy/worried/ panicking/ taking out money for other things.
If a little blip like this has you on Prozac, you'll be comatose before long. You have to go into investing with an understanding that we'll go through ups and downs.
Having said all that, I'm not convinced that this drop is entirely unwarranted. As one previous answerer said, inflation is now becoming a legitimate worry. Greenspan, with his magic wand, is gone. And we're stuck with all this wild spending our government is doing (and not paying for). We're wondering how it could possibly NOT be inflationary. (Secret hint: it can't.)
So, armed with that info, what should you do?
Personally, I've been keen on investing outside the U.S. for some time now. And today, with overseas markets falling harder than ours, this may be an opportunity to do some switching. Of course, if the U.S. dollar falls, we'll probably buy less imports from them, but I doubt if that will plunge the world into recession. We're big, but not that big.
Longer term, I suggest you vote for politicians that understand fiscal responsibility. (Secret hint: neither of the major candidates in the last election!)
Hope you can hold on through this difficult time. |

I've been investing many years, and these minor drops no longer bother me. They use to bug me a lot. I have lost a hell of a lot of money in the last few days, but over the long run, I have made a hell of a lot more. Review your portfolio, make sure you are well diversified in multiple industries, and hold tight. (If you are not sure you are properly diversified, consider putting some or all of your money in a diversified mutual fund. People who bought all Internet stocks back in 2000 have still not recovered; look at the NASDAQ) |

The broader marker is retreating because of the psychological boundary of the old record and 11,000 on the Dow, the petroleum prices and the fact those are weakening the economy. The price of energy was eventually going to take its tool. It hit automakers first, now it is hitting all of us.
There is some uncertainty about the war, too. I think liberals are worried it is going to go well and work itself out and everyone else it worried it won't.
With he decline of commodity prices today the market should rebound in the next few Weeks. |

The large institutional investors are playing with us again, but if you are are in mutual funds you will survive. Just a little consolidation, hold on, things will improve eventually. Never trust the large brokerage houses. |

When it goes up, we think we are smart, when it goes down we think it is manipulation. Just human nature.

I am somewhat a novice at this too but I've been studying the market for a few years now. If you look at the cycle, the stocks tend to drop this time of year anyway. Don't panic just yet. |
