When the market is moving a few tenths of percentage points on a weekly basis, it's easy to practice patience and a methodical investment process. It's times like this, though, when 5% swings seem to happen on a daily occurrence, where your temperament is put to the test. These are the times where people can make rash decisions to exit the market entirely or jump into questionable companies because they look "cheap".
The best thing any investor can do now is maintain composure and continue to look for great companies at good prices, as our hero Warren Buffett would put it. So we asked several of our contributors to each highlight a great company that could be a good buy this month. Here's why they picked CareTrust REIT (NASDAQ: CTRE), Lululemon Athletica (NASDAQ: LULU), Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), Waste Management (NYSE: WM), and Teladoc Health (NYSE: TDOC)
