Beginner Investing – Recession Equals Buy Low
Beginner Stock Market Investing, Stock Market Investing Advice, Stock Market Investing Strategies
I keep seeing people whine about the economy and felt like saying something about their attitude. So bare with me as I rant a bit about this supposed negative situation.
The old adage goes: “Buy low sell high”.
Ask yourself a few simple questions: What are home prices like right now? The lowest they have been in decades? Really?
But the adage says we should buy….ohhhhh…
Get what I am driving at? The economy is in the toilet. So what? It has been before, and guess what. It will be again. Marx found that capitalism suffers from booms and busts. The booms are the highs, the busts are the lows. Capitalism is cyclic.
The wealthy recognize the low points as the prime time to make purchases because the cycle will continue and eventually drive those purchases to higher worth. You smell what I’m steppin’ in?
Fine, I’ll be blunt. THIS IS THE TIME TO BUY! Houses are cheap and plentiful. Stocks are dipping. BUY BUY BUY BUY BUY.
A new president is on the way and the economy is officially a recession (usually the situation recovers shortly after the government declares recession because all the funds see this as a signal of the bottom and start buying into markets again which in turn forces the economy to move positive). These are signs of a recovery to come. Get the hell out there and buy buy buy.
Stop whining and recognize what is happening around you. Instead of being upset at the economy, recognize that everything is on sale right now.
Then when the economy is strong again, you do what? Well a strong economy would mean that houses are expensive and stocks are up, they’re high right? You friggin’ sell and wait for another economic downturn to reinvest your gains! Done. Your rich.
Now all those who are whining about the economy can f-off as you take your capital gains to the bank.
