Why You Probably Won't Buy Stocks in the Next Market Crash Either
Time after time, investors have seen the same scenario play out. A crisis arises, and stocks sell off hard. Things look bad. There doesn't seem to be any bottom in sight.
Then, all of a sudden, the market starts to rebound. It seems too good to be true, as the situation outside the financial markets still looks sketchy at best. Yet stocks keep rising and rising. Before you know it, a new bull market has started.
That's what's happened so far in 2020, and it's a playbook that experienced investors have seen countless times before. Yet even with all that experience, many of those seasoned investors didn't pull the trigger to buy more stocks when the market was plunging. A lot of them are kicking themselves right now, because once again, they've missed out on a golden opportunity to make what could be some of the most lucrative investments of their careers.
