It seems absolutely obvious that all of us should have sold stocks in October of last year, when the Dow Jones Industrial Average hit an all time high of over 14,000. Or better yet, having the brilliance to get out of tech stocks or most of the NASDAQ issues in late 2000, as the NASDAQ hit its all time high of just over 5000. It's easy to see those as turning points in the market. Now.
I think we're in the same type of situation currently. Market indexes have been pounded to lows not seen in decades. Stocks are selling at valuations that no one could have imagined only a year ago. Will we look back on this period in the same way? A time when opportunities were everywhere and wonder why we didn't buy?
Maybe. Here are a few things to consider.
