How good of a Buying Opportunity is it now?

[william the wie]

China is trying to claim the Coronavirus has peaked. Yields on bond substitutes like REITs and utilities are barely decent but definitely not great. The FAANG stocks have acted punier than expected. This does act like the start of a buying boom. what do you think?

It's a good entry point for many stocks. Especially those having little or nothing to do with China.
Buy low, sell high.
This is also a great time to look at long term stock charts because that has much more to do with what's coming.

charts are not my thing but with more companies leaving China because of logistics a lot of companies will discover that China is a huge and elderly market that they need.

It's always a 'good time to buy' some stocks, isn't it???

In general, we're 'booming' because of foreign money pouring in looking for a safe haven from a general world recession. Consumer spending is down, wages aren't rising they're lagging inflation yet again, oil is so cheap now just about any hiccup might send it souring for a short term, the virus, well, who knows how long it will take the gamblers to jump back in and drive up prices again. I just found out I can pretty much rely on focusing much of my time on one commodity that has been in huge demand since before written history began, and only gambling small amounts in the Big Casino, and actually do better in real casinos when all my comps are included.

Again, there really isn't that much discretionary income there, either; their debt bubble is huge. A lot of companies are learning the bribes and extortions are higher than the taxes they would pay here, is all. The REd Chinese govt. is still very Red, and when they need cash they aren't going to get it out of the laborers. salves, really, they provided those American companies.

India is facing a hard coming year as well.

Wrong question
Rephrase that to, "do I want to wait until it is not raining knives before I get back into the market?" The usual answer is yes.
But back to the OP
Iran's health minister collapsed during an address to the nation, this month.

no one believes the news out of China.

The Muslim Hajj is six months down the road and it usually spreads plagues like nobody's business. The question is how many consumers of oil do you expect to be dead by the end of this year?

I think the Saudis have cancelled all religious tourism.

Beware the Dead Cat Bounce

The next stock-market bounce will give way to ‘drop’ and retest of the low, says Wall Street analyst

I'm talking about trading a commodity on a small scale. I reallocated largely out of stocks last year when the S&P 500 PE Ratio got very high.

Wait till September or even October before going back into this pool. Secondary and other deaths will climb for a while

 

[RodISHI]

Well, I wouldn't go for pandemic bonds right at the moment.

World Bank pandemic bond under pressure as coronavirus spreads

‘Useless’ pandemic bonds offer little hope for dealing with coronavirus

Maybe not even then, and if so it will be a toe dip.

Buying now is very dangerous...it's what traders call "trying to catch a falling knife".

This does act like the start of a buying boom. what do you think?

Buying Boom for which Individuals?

What % of the US population has the opportunity to even invest current cash on hand?
What % of the US population has the opportunity to take their massive stash of CASH and buy stock?
What % of the US population has the opportunity to EFFECTIVELY move money currently in their retirement funds?
What % of the US population has the opportunity call their broker on a daily basis and get immediate response?
What % of the US population has the opportunity to alter automatic deposits into retirement plans that they cannot easily alter?

I'm guessing that all of the above cater to the Ultra Rich.

You know the market is going to go back up....panic on wall street can't infect a main street boom for very long...buying time is almost here...

/——/ Look at APT, CBLI, and LAKE. They are all tied to the Coronavirus cures and protective gear. As a disclaimer, I own all three and they are moving up.

There is this new thing called the Internet. It's groovy, man.
You can use it to go to sites like TD Ameritrade or Charles Schwab, where you can enter trades yourself, commission-free.
