Is This the Market of a Lifetime?
Posted March 25, 2009 by Bernz
It’s difficult for even the best prognosticators to get a handle on the stock market these days. The massive recession-that-might-be-a-depression that has gripped much of the industrialized world has brutalized stock markets in the US and abroad. Pension funds, college funds and savings accounts have all been hard hit. Recently, CNBC’s Jim Cramer took a verbal beating from Jon Stewart about his inability to predict the crash.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average has dropped to its lowest level in 12 years recently and continues to test that limit. But even with all of the warnings about the dangers of the market right now, some wise investors are in collection mode.
So, is there opportunity in the stock market right now or only grief and despair? Optimists point to the fact that all stocks are getting punished regardless of their fundamentals. That means that there are stocks that are currently undervalued lurking out there. The tricky part is finding the ones that will both weather the remainder of the recession and also do well when the markets turn around.
