History Says Doing This 1 Thing Will Score You an Investing Win -- Even After a Market Crash.
It's something very simple.
Overview
A market crash may be very far from your mind right now -- or very close, depending on how you view recent market performance. The three major benchmarks, the S&P 500, the Nasdaq Composite, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average, have soared in the double-digits over the past few years in this bull market. And just this week, the Dow Jones closed above 53,000 for the first time ever.
What's driven this momentum? Artificial intelligence (AI) stocks have set the pace over the past few years, as investors have jumped to get in on the next game-changing thing in technology. AI has the potential to streamline companies' operations and help them innovate -- and all of this could supercharge earnings over the long run. Investors, wanting to be part of this from the get-go, have been buying shares of companies that play key roles in this revolution.
Details
Though the market has soared, we have seen moments of weakness in recent months. For example, late last year, investors worried about the valuations of AI stocks, and that weighed significantly on their performance. And at certain moments, investors have questioned the level of technology companies' spending on AI -- and whether the future revenue opportunity will justify it.
