Yes, think about companies that you know/ believe are going to be around or will grow / be bigger in 10 years. Write them down and then create a watchlist ... during this times when one on your watch list goes down 12 to 15% it is time to buy a little. Your never time the market to buy a the absolute dip. So far this Trip my best pickup is Marriott at $48 and Disney at $85 both are solid companies that will come out of this well. I have done ok on some oil stocks but they have a way to go still and some bank stocks - still a way to go.
You can also place money in an index fund - this is a fund that tracks like the S&P 500 or the Dow - traditionally it is hard to beat their returns and you want to look for one with low fees
Also there is a platform called
wealthfront that you can invest in long term .. putting in as little or as much as you want weekly, monthly etc. this is a AI system that after you create your profile it plots out a course for you based on the risk you want to take. Then it invest on your behalf. Interesting thing about this platform is that it can be set up for Tax loss harvesting which will help on your tax return.
If that is something you are interest in direct message me you email and I can forward you a referal link where you start and can your first 5000 is managed with no fees.
just know that with any trading while you can make money short term it is a longer play.
