There is no for sure in investments, but based on past history and assuming Bush does not start a nuclear war the answer is about 97% yes. I am glad you did not specify a time frame however. I might take some time. Perhaps years, but not likely. More likely months provided banks do not start failing because of defaulted mortgages.

Absolutely. Probably not next week, maybe not next month, but eventually they will. They did after the 1929 crash and depression, which was MUCH worse than this week. They did after the 1987 crash, which was MUCH worse than this week. And they did after every other scary decline where people panicked and said they'd never invest in stocks again.
Stocks are volatile. They go up and down, sometimes violently, but over the long run, stocks are the only class of investment that has appreciated faster than inflation in any 20 year period you can pick since 1927. For long-term investing, they are definitely the way to go.

Of course they will go up again. Most publicly traded companies will over time grow their assets and profits. This in turn makes their stock prices (and or dividends) go up. To suggest otherwise is to suggest that the US and world economies will never expand (as they have been doing since the beginnig of civiliation).

History repeats itself. Stocks will rise again, and again.

Maybe in a month the CBOE volatilty is still very high at 18 I will wait till it is under 13 to get back in but when it does there will be serious money to be made. every one is saying it is at its bottom or close to but it is no where near it they just want you to buy so they can sell for more money.Maybe PLLL is a good buy check it out

What a stupid question. The answer for you is yes. The real question is when, and what stocks.

Eventually - Yes.

What goes up, must come down. What comes down, must go up. Time to buy ;)
