Is It Time to Buy the S&P 500's 3 Worst-Performing August Stocks?: https://g.foolcdn.com/editorial/images/746705/economic-crisis-stock-chart-falling-down-business-global-money-bankruptcy.jpg

The S 500 has rebounded strongly from last year's pullback, but the broad-market index stalled out in August as concerns about rising interest rates and a recovery that may have gotten ahead of itself contributed to the decline in stocks.

As you can see from the chart below, the S 500 edged down 1.8% in August, slightly better than the Nasdaq and Dow Jones Industrial Average. Though investors don't typically like to see their stocks fall, sell-offs can lead to buying opportunities if they are for short-term reasons.
