"Borrowing" to buy stocks?
Since that is something I would never, ever, ever, even think of doing, I'm a little confused where you got that idea from any of my posts?
One only has to do a bit of reading about the Great Depression, to understand that buying stocks on margin was a big contributor to the market crash.
The obvious volatility of the markets (long before this virus thing), with the potential we are only on a temporary plateau before a significant plunge, is the exact reason I was looking for other's opinions on their guesses as to the best time to buy.
