Shares/Stock When is the best time to buy stocks?

[greenieS]

The decision to buy stock is difficult for many people, as they each go by different criteria. Some have certain superstitions and buy in a month like July, August, other people buy when stocks fall sharply and have a low price and there are other people who buy stocks daily.

Which category do you belong to? What time do you think is best to buy stocks?

There is no specific time and against all predictions then they could say this company sales are increasing a lot on July or August based on previous years chart of sales but this year the sales aren't reaching the goal he has planned. Some times there is some sales against previous years predictions means in March the sales for 3 consecutives years are reaching zero sales (few one) however this year there is a great increase in sales so nothing cannot be 100 % predicted in stocks market world. So the investor has to invest on July or August and may try to invest in March because there is may some surprises on the market.

For me, the best time to buy stocks is when you can put a check on the following items:
1. You have excess money that you will not use for 1 year. This is a safeguard to selling the stocks at a loss. You can avoid that situation if you have the luxury of time with your investment.
2. When you have made a thorough research on a particular stock that you know would be in good financial standing because of its good financial performance in the past years.
3. You know of a broker that you can trust with his advice.

Investing in stocks is like a gamble even if you are investing on blue chip stocks. What you really need is full knowledge of stock investment so that your money will not go to waste.
