A Stock Market Crash Is Coming Sooner or Later. History Says Investors Who Do This One Thing Will Profit.

The article argues that stock market crashes and corrections are unavoidable, but history shows they have typically created buying opportunities rather than reasons to sell. It points to the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite, noting both have repeatedly recovered after corrections and bear markets, with strong average gains in the year and two years after first entering correction territory. The piece stresses that market timing is risky because investors can miss the market’s best days, which can severely hurt long-term returns. Near-term risks cited include elevated energy prices and possible interest rate increases, but the article’s core message is that investors who buy broad index funds during drawdowns are likely to profit eventually.
