March Lows a "Textbook Bottom," Buy the Dips, Says Schwab Funds CIO

Nice to hear that we may have seen the bottom. Good to look to buy American made stuff maybe from some of these small cap domestic compaines... www.myamericangoods.com

Schwab Equity Ratings is bogus.

I wonder if they will find this pumper when it crashes. This farce will continue to DOW 9000-ish , then crash to new lows. Where are the jobs coming from? 2 trillion deficit today, 70 trillion owed over 30 years. REAL unemployment 14%. China slowing buying our paper. Dollar heading down.. on and on,

Put all your money in cash in BBV cd's Thanks for reading.

Aaron - you and Henry still just don't get it do you. I'm actually surprised that neither you or Henry don't understand how the market really works.

That guy looks like a classic dip... go figure....

The man is hardly impartial.

He has perfect hindsight, now go chew on a bone.

Just follow Jack Bogle's advice. DCA and "age in bonds/cash". Works like a charm over the long run.

Laughable. Why not wait for the market to go up 2100 before your call. You're recommending at the top kid.

We may not retest the lows, but I don't see how the economy can recover with a Marxist in charge. Cap and trade, government healthcare, punishing the job producers, we're headed for a decade of poverty and stagnation like England in the 70's.

You p&%%#ies!!!! Stand up to your government!!!! How do you think this country was founded?? it's happening again and you better be willing to fight!! Your all blind sheep!!!!!! wake the F$^# UP!!!!!! If your ok with your money being stolen then send that to me because it's so easy to take it from stupid people!!! F*%$ our government!! They lie, steal and DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU!!!!!!!!! JEEZZ WAKE UP!!! OH I think it's going to get better?? SHUT UP!!!! YOU KNOW NOTHING AND YOUR GOVERNMENT LIES!!!! 9/11, Stealing your money, Freedom IRAQ.....STAND UP NOW BEFORE IT'S TO LATE!!!!

Dont think we'll see the lows again, but we could have a 10% pull back or so down to 800. Fair value of this market is around S&P 850. I wouldn't be mroe than 60% long equities IMO. For people with a long term 10+ year time horizon, these levels look attractive. Yes, they are at 1997 levels. in 1997 we didn't have all this greed and leverage, yet the market was around where it is now. In my mind this is a screaming buy. Or you could wait till everything is great and buy at S&P 1300. There is downside risk, but only in the short term 1 year or so. Ride it out and you will be rewarded within 5 years.

napp96- I have been thinking about doing the same with my 401k as far as cashing out and taking the hit on the taxes. My logic is the Government will eventually raise the tax rate on withdrawn 401k money and I would rather pay the 10% than 15 or 20 later on.

Take responsibility for your investments. Get involved. Buy the dips! Sell the highs! Whoopee! Ride the roller-coaster until you hit the jackpot and can retire, or you lose everything, and end up having to work until you fall over dead. THIS is how building one’s nest egg was meant to be: Full of heart-stopping, nail-biting EXCITEMENT!

Thanks Tech Ticker! I sold everything in March because you scared me out of the market. Where do I send the bill? I can't believe I listened to these clowns on how to invest. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Blodget "Blodget personally invested $700,000 in tech stocks, only to lose most of it in the years that followed."

Where do I find that crystal ball you all have? I am still tossing a coin.

This guy oversees the Schwab Core Equity Fund, down 32.77%? And you're going to take his advice? Sold to you.

The second Great Depression won’t end until Obama’s weak foreign policy leads to the third world war.
