Market going to CRASH ???

174
Yes, that is what the media wants you to believe. For God's sake, if they can predict the market moves , why are they where they are ? Haha......Negative news always attract people to read the news, ie. viewerships rate going up which translate to better revenue for the company. It's all about the money, who cares if the market goes up or down. So, with that as backdrop , look at the past "crashes", the 3 circled zone has a 20% or more drop, but guess what happens thereafter. It went up like a rocket.

Unless you are a trader, good at market timing, then that is another story. But, if you are a long term investor, you should be happy coz Mr Market is offering you a discount to buy its index or shares of companies.

Do you think Donald Trump is dumb? Of course not ! He knows his words weight a lot in the market and so uses it to his advantage. The tariffs while put on hold for a month will eventually reach some sort of agreement between the parties. Bleeding the companies with high tariffs will only drives the costs of US goods higher and inflation is what US cannot afford..........

So, if you are going to do dollar cost averaging, make sure you go in to buy in tranches. First 25% when in drops 10% which is now, another 25% when it drops 15-20% and last 50% when it drops more than 20%, etc. The % drop is a rough gauge, it can be 17 or 23%........

Take my words with a pinch of salt. this is no financial advice. Don't believe the doomsday porn else they will be multi millionaires sipping pina colada at the beach of some deserted island......and not behind desk churning dark, scary titles to get your eyeballs.......

Using click bait fear inducing titles like "plunge", "crash", "sell-off",etc gets people attention. From paper profit of say, 100 to 30 makes you more jittery and sleepless compared to a paper gain of 120 from 100 . You expect the latter but not the former, thinking that 100 is already yours except you have not cashed out. Haha. Wrong thinking. So long as you have not sell to take profits, it is merely profits on paper. It can go higher or lower, next day, next week or next year. Anyone guess.
