Investors This Recent Market Frenzy Might Be Your Buying Opportunity

With the recent crash and failures in the stock market many people are wondering what’s the next step. Why are the markets freaking out? Whose to know, could it be the German short-selling ban, the Greek debt crisis, falling value of the Euro, China’s tightening its monetary policy, U.S. budget deficit, falling crude oil prices, or the Goldman Sachs scandal, I don’t care pick one to blame. All I do know is if you are a long-term investor I see this as a great buying opportunity. The Dow Jones has fallen 1,000 points (9.5%) in recent weeks and many stocks have dipped down to levels where they valuations have become very attractive. Evan Newmark analyses this situation best saying “A hint of uncertainty begets volatility which begets hysteria which begets panic which begets Armageddon.” If you are a trader I would suggest being cautious and buy only while protecting yourself. However if your looking at the long run buy strong value equities and let them sit and a year from now you’ll be happy with the decision. What makes me optimistic is the cash is following around in big Fortune 500 companies. Free cash flow of the market capitalization of the S&P 500 is near a two-year high. This bodes well for companies looking to expand and move forward. In fact, combined Microsoft, Google, Cisco, Apple, and Intel have enough cash on their balance sheets to finance the Greek bailout

Stop the Government: Free Market Capitalism is the Best Path to Prosperity

StockFrontRunners — Tue, 18 May 2010 07:01:24 +0000

With all the cloudiness and uncertainties with the current state of the markets many are wondering what kind of role the government will take. I say “None at all.” As Larry Kudlow best states on a daily basis “ Free market capitalism is the best path to prosperity!” I completely agree with Kudlow and am a free-marketer. It is our free market system that built this country into the most successful and powerful economy in the history of man. It also allowed us to help the global spread of capitalism and allow emerging markets to thrive over the past 20 years. It tires me to hear that we are thinking of tightening regulations on banks and Wall Street. Get rid of regulations and restrictions and let free market competition play out. Socialist losers believe in government intervention and never has it helped. Half of the reason we are in this mess because Congress forced the banks/lenders hand to loan to low income individuals with poor credit histories who ended up defaulting on their loans.

2:45 PM Market Crash: One of the Worst

Forget the Great Depression, the 1987 crash, or the dot com bubble; the 2:45 PM crash might have been one of the worst. It’s amazing to see how fast the markets plunged I wonder if the fact that many of the firms shutdown trading operations made it worse.
