Society Business and Career

1: Never before in history have we seen such explosive growth of the middle class worldwide. This means brand new markets everywhere for everything.
2:History shows returns are much higher for a portfolio formed midway in a recession than one formed midway in a recovery.
3: Despite the market run up since March, takeovers are everywhere which means market pros are seeing good value in select companies.
4: Corporate bond yields are generous especially relative to treasuries
5: Dividends, which are responsible for half the long term return of the market, are very attractive in certain companies

Re: 5 Reason to invest now

Ran into this. Normally not good to dig up dead threads. But in investment, old threads are where one can assess someone’s accuracy.

October 09, while not the bottom, was still a good time to buy. Good call. The point number 2, while counterintuitive, is a good one. Not sure what attractive corporate bond yields have to do with stock returns prospects.
