Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: My first reaction to the Brexit news was to buy the SP500 dip this morning, but now I recall that in 2011, the market fell 17% over two weeks. This was triggered by the debt ceiling fears. With Britain leaving the European union and possibly more countries following, it seems that this event is FAR MORE important than the debt ceiling, so a 15% correction seems very probable. Usually, when an investor has cash, it's better not to wait for a pullback, but now we do an have an "event" on our hands. The media will surely go on a fear mongering campaign. Would you recommend waiting a week to start buying, or, giving it a few more weeks?

Q: Hello folks:
Month of May has come and gone. Some seasonal investing gurus said, it is nowadays in June that we should see a seasonal correction. June is almost gone along with Brexit!
I know you are not fans of Technical analysis.
But is there going to be a correction. seasonal or not?
What does your crystal ball gazing say!!
Looking at employing cash IF and WHEN the correction takes place.
Thanks in advance.
