I respectfully disagree with the other posters here. I feel that you need to judge each and every investments on its merits. The market does not move exactly in lockstep. When Goldman Sachs was at 85, it was an effing steal. I would still invest in it today if I had the money, but I wouldn't totally pounce on it. As for timing the bottom, yea that's kinda hard. I would watch more experienced players call it cough Buffett cough, instead of listening to random people (yes I know, random ppl like me) on the internetz. ;)
