Only if you're going to short the market. Several posters said stocks are cheap now? Where? They are cheaper than they were in May, but they are still way overvalued.
The market follows a 17-18 year cycle. The last bull market lasted from 1982 to 2000 when the tech bubble popped. We are only 6 years into an 18 year bear cycle. When this bear does finally run it's course, I see the Dow trading in the 1000 area. Most people will think me a buffoon, but I've been studying the markets for 20 years, and this market has yet to see the major sell offs equated with a bubble. The sell off from 2001 to 2003 was only the first phase. This next leg down is going to be horrible, and unless you know how to trade a bear, stay out of it.

Absolutely.
But don't be in a hurry.
Take your time to learn all you can (which means: until you're fed up) before investing your hard-earned money.
Other tip: go get some advice at the investment firms near you, take appointments with invesment advisors even if you decide not to buy from them.

Alot of stocks are down and cheaper to buy, invest in bluechip stocks, with longterm growth, the market will go back up its just a matter of time.

Yes, the stocks are low now and they will be for sometime. Buy good solid stocks and plan on keeping them for a long time. You may also consider bonds. One word to remember is to diversify.
