Making a List and Checking it Twice

Are you spending more time figuring out what to sell or what to buy? Unfortunately, most investors start thinking about selling when they should be deciding what to buy. Hopefully you are not in that crowd because they make money… not for themselves, but for other people. I know this sounds a bit nutty coming from someone as “negative” as me, but I really encourage you to start figuring out what to buy. NO, I AM NOT TELLING YOU TO BUY INTO THIS MARKET AND I AM NOT CALLING A BOTTOM. I am just saying that now is the time to work overtime and decide what stocks you would want to put in your portfolio once they stop declining. You probably have some time before we start an upward move but I don’t think it makes sense to put your buy list together in a hurry. Use this selloff to zig while others are zagging.
