Buy low: Sell high. Diversify .
Buy stocks from great companies that pay a dividend when their share prices are at their lows. Stocks periodically go "on sale" when there's times of uncertainty. By buying these "value stocks" that pay a dividend, you get paid to wait for the price to go up. If you want to cash out, do so when the stock is near a target price that may indicate that the traders may be cashing out. The target price is usually close to the stock's 52 wk high.
GE is an example of a great company that's not going out of business but is at it's 52 wk low.
GE's pays $1 a share so if you have 500 shares you get paid $500 a year in dividends. Its recent 52 wk low was $32.21 & its high was $36.34 GE five year expected growth is 11%
At Yahoo Finance you can make a portfolio of stocks you might be interested in & practice watching how it does first before putting real money into the market.
Be sure to diversify & pick great companies in each field such as Utilities, Medicine, Reits, Consumer staples, Tech etc.
As Buffett’s mentor Benjamin Graham wrote in The Intelligent Investor, “In the short-term, the market is a voting machine, in the long-term it is a weighing machine.” By buying quality companies (that have cash & profits) at cut-rate prices, you can cash in when the market finally realizes your stock’s true worth.
I hope you realize that nothing is guaranteed, however, this strategy has been used by those who want to minimize their risk & still participate in the market.

Good luck!

There are three things you can be good at in investing. . .whether equities or just about any other tradeable asset class:

1. Knowing what to buy (selection);
2. Knowning when to buy or sell (timing);
3. Following through with a game plan (discipline).

As a general guideline, you can MAKE MONEY by being good at any ONE of the above.

And you can get rich by at least following 3. . .but it will take time.

And. . .possibly. . .you can get rich sooner if you prove to be good at any two of 1-3 above, or all three!

Mutual Fund manager Peter Lynch offer this sage advice: "know what you own and why".

(In other words. . .have a specific time and profit goal for everything you buy. . .so that you know when it's time to sell, etc.)

Also. . ."buy and hold" does NOT mean "buy and forget"!

Btw. . .if you do not already read or subscribe to Investor's Business Daily. . .it's a great daily paper (or electronic information service) for investors. . .because it shows which stocks and sectors are receiving the money flows. . .so as to spot forward price momentum. . .or stock issues that are more likely to fall in price over time than rise.

Hope this helps!

Buy when the stocks are very low, but make sure you know that they won't get even lower. When it makes a lot of money and it is very high, sell it, because you never know it might go down.

Good luck

sure, short sellers get prosperous whilst the inventory industry crashes however the finished volume of inventory offered short is an fairly small share of the astonishing inventory. the greater effective answer on your question is that the money lost is going nowhere. It only evaporates into the ether of fallen investments. A humorous component to think of roughly is that a business enterprise could have one thousand million shares of inventory astonishing however the linked fee of all that inventory is desperate via the final sale on the inventory substitute. So if the inventory is advertising for $a hundred/share the business enterprise is properly worth $100B. If the subsequent sale on the inventory substitute is for a hundred shares @ $ninety 9/share, then the business enterprise is now properly worth $99B and one thousand million money of capitalization has only vanished. which skill after international inventory markets tank, trillions of greenbacks in wealth is only wiped out. that is not transferred to all human beings. that is only obliterated.

Put your money in now, while the market is still low. Ignore it for 30 years, and then take a look at it. Invest for the long term.

Only buy stocks that go up in value. Avoid the ones that go down in value,unless you're a short seller.

When share prices increase to a little more than the local bank deposit rate of interest,dispose the shares and encash the same. Any delay may cost you financially.
