Where to next?
No one knows for sure, we are likely to see market
volatility continue until financial institutions have
balanced their books as a result of the sub-prime
crisis. Some argue that the upfront accounting
is likely to have shown losses that may not
even exist and that now is the time to buy.
Personally I feel that whilst we are likely to
see another one or two financial institutions
announce big write downs due to the sub-prime
crisis, opportunities have already begun to present
themselves.

The problem for most investors is that the emotional attachment we have with our own investments means that we find it much easier to buy when markets have risen, and sell when markets have fallen. The reality is that we should sell when markets are high and buy when they have fallen.

Whilst we cannot predict exactly
when we are at the top or bottom of
a cycle, stockmarket corrections are
a natural part of market behaviour
and can provide some excellent
buying opportunities.
 
Big falls in the share market are often very closely followed by big rises. Staying invested in the market during these sharp rises is crucial to long term investment returns and is therefore the best way to achieve long term returns.
