There
are many people that would say that the market is on the up and up and isn’t
looking like it’s going to crash since people are optimistic about our
country’s growth. They also say despite this that investing in stocks is a
gamble as you can’t predict what is going to happen in the future. They say the
market is looking to be bullish forever and that this is prime investing
weather. Many have also said that inflation has been defeated by American
economist because they are always ahead of it and keep it under control. A lot
of people also say that the federal reserve is public and owned by the
government.
“At the
current moment the market is very volatile, spurring a good time to invest and
take advantage of the market’s volatility” says Courtney a lead market analyst.
I very much agree that this is the best time to invest due to the volatility however
the market is up at the moment so the entry prices are high and due to our
limited budget we have to research more and find solid investments. “If you’re
going to buy individual stocks, we believe that you should buy companies that
are leaders in their industry, have disciplined management teams and have good
rates of growth in sales or earnings,” Courtney says. I find that very interesting as I have always
invested in small volatile companies in bulk in order to maximize my buying power
however I will have to try this and compare the profit margin.
All of
this shows how misinformed the populous is. The first example of people saying
that the market is on the up and up is purely wrong while we are bullish at the
moment however in march fed interest rates are going to go up in order to slow
inflationary pressure on our economy. “Investing in the stock market is too
risky” I simply can’t agree with that for many reasons the most prominent reason
being that if you plan out your investments the stock market becomes
significantly less risky and more profitable. They say this is prime investing
weather, however a bullish market can be very difficult to invest in and
slightly riskier than usual due to the potential volatility of the market that
being said this is the time when you can make the most money on the market due
to that same volatility. Inflation has not been defeated and we see about a .5%
each year due to employment. The federal reserve is a private company the
controls interest rates.
