Think its a good time to Dollar-Cost Average?

Fri, Oct 31, 2008

General

The markets have dropped about 40% since I made most of my initial investments. Think its a good idea to double up my investments now to cut my Dollar-Cost Average in half almost?

With the prices so low I feel like I shouldn’t miss this opportunity. Or am I just being greedy and should put my money somewhere safer?

V, NVDA, AAPL are my current holdings.

    There is no simple answer to this question. You should reevaluate your selections; if nothing has changes in your valuation of these stocks then technically speaking you still should like them and they are now 40% cheaper.
    In this case, things have changed, for example future earning of these firms have been revised down so take this into consideration before making a decision.

    I still like them, and they are 40% below, which makes the more appealing.

    Cash is king now right? and these company’s have a lot of money in cash.

    Hey, are you guys over here all still bullish?!? I remember quite a while back you had some guy you labeled as too ‘Gloom and Doom’ and you kept telling us to buy buy buy.

    Hmmm, I wonder, maybe you were Predicting and he was Explaining?

    With the prices so low, it makes for a great buying opportunity in a retirement account.

    What’s your plan? Are you still waiting to buy in and sitting on cash?

    Where are you storing your money? Retirement, and savings.
