Buying the Dip: A Mindset Guide for the ...

SAM DOGEN: FINANCIAL SAMURAI FOUNDER, PERSONAL FINANCE BLOGGER
About this episode

Buying the stock market dip can be intimidating. As a result, many investors sit on cash, waiting for clear signs of a recovery. However, history has shown that those who bought during downturns and held on have often done well over time. With that in mind, I wanted to share a few strategies to help build the courage to buy the dip when the next opportunity arises.
