OPINION: While stocks are likely to be “on sale” now, cash savings are more important right now.
During every period of stock market losses SPX, -1.70%, financial prognosticators far and wide tell you to buy as much stock as you can, touting the old party line that “everything is on sale.”
The pandemic potential If a global pandemic becomes reality, and even if it doesn’t, we’re going to see supply chain and work disruptions all over the world, as we’re already seeing with goods made in China, including everything from iPhones AAPL, -1.32% to critical pharmaceutical products. The impact of an extended recession If you’ve been an investor over the last decade, it’s easy to let the record-setting gains you’ve piled up fool you into forgetting how long it actually took the U.S. and the world economy to recover from the Great Recession.
And unlike the Great Recession, whose impact was blunted in large part by monetary policy and intervention by Congress and the Fed, a recession driven by a global pandemic will not have the same remedies available. Balancing saving cash against investing for retirement If you’re investing for the future, that is a good thing, and a looming recession is not a reason to stop investing. If anything, it’s exactly the time to keep investing.
