Buy The Dips

  

We recommend ranch with tortilla chips. Cheese and tomatillo work as well.

A dip on a stock market chart indicates that the stock has declined in price, which could make it a perfect time to buy. This is especially true if it was an “irrational” sell-off due to some world event, such as an uprising in a third world country, BREXIT, a bad crop of grapes in France, or a new government forming in a European Union country. These are often temporary dips that will swing back upward in the near future.

However, there are other occasions when there’s a real, permanent dip in price based on a new value of the stock’s assets, such as with the dot bombs’ collapse from 2000-2002.
