Jimmy come boppin’ in off the street
And when the cuttin’ were done
The only part that wasn’t bloody
Was the soles of the big man’s feet

cnbc says now is a good time to buy.

depends. if you are young and somehow have money to invest ... then I might wait for it to settle a bit more and then buy. Of course if one expects the market to always go up and never correct or crash they should not invest at all

“Wasn’t this supposed to be the “summer of recovery”...”......

Since odumbo came on board, it’s going to take a long time to “recover”, if ever.

Why not put a hedge on? Why take a potential 68% hair cut? You could start the road back at a higher level. There are pros who know how to do that commensurate with the size of your position.

Lots of folks have 401s and IRAs in stock funds. It won’t sink in until they get their quarterly or year end reports.
