The Market Is Down Again

The market has had several days of losses. It has started high and then nosedived or just started down and never goes positive. This will scare many people from the market and could get people to stop investing or pul money out. This is the wrong strategy. Money should be going into stocks. They are still a great buy and certainly have room to go up even higher. Not only do third year terms for presidents always outperform the average but companies are still profitable.

Companies have changed their outlooks and some companies earnings have missed. Many companies are still strong though and will do really well once the oil is more stabilized and consumers have money to spend from saving at the fuel pump.

At this time I am still strongly a bull and believe the market will shake off these early year jitters. In full disclosure, the Christmas season was not as strong as I expected. It did not have the increase in December spending but a decrease. I cannot always be right but it does seem that consumers had money. The consumers did not spend their extra cash. I think they will spend it and some were probably waiting for the deals after Christmas.

Happy Investing in 2015 may it be profitable.
