Event Influencing Investment
What with a new strain of influenza and the different reaction to it ,compared with the past ,the almost impeachment of President Trump ,Brexit and the usual tensions between major nations reaching a higher level of late,the frothy stock market went into a tailspin and started to slide!
All the signals that the market was too high were there as they have been for some time. Tipsters as always say ,there are pockets of stocks that are still worth buying and nobody screams a downturn is about to happen! Politicians will now be glad of these events as one can hardly blame it on their specific influence!
In the good times that have ruled of late stocks ran ahead of what was wise and a correction was inevitable. The downturn is not a real recession although stocks might drop by 12%to 24% on average,depending how hard
they have run.
We now consider stocks on a sounder footing,and in our opinion only would present a buying opportunity as many positive events regarding China and other play out.
Stocks should be bought for a steady gain as dividends increase over years rather than trading on shorter terms which mostly ends up losing money as it becomes just a gamble otherwise. Only traders with years of experience should trade in short term instruments.
In wondering what to buy look at good stocks that have decreased by about the average in their particular sectors. Do not choose stocks that are not trending .Do your own research before jumping in. Do not expect to be successful all the time.
