WDC - 3 Top Stocks That Will Make You Richer in August (and Beyond)
Congratulations, investors, you've made it through seven months of 2020... even if it feels like it's taken five years to get here.
There's little question that the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has wreaked havoc on the U.S. economy and tested the resolve of investors like never before. We've borne witness to the fastest bear-market decline in history, as well as the strongest single-quarter rally in 22 years. Frankly, no one knows what to expect next, save for ongoing volatility.
Thankfully, bouts of volatility have historically been good news for long-term investors. That's because periods of fear and panic that lead to volatility allow investors to purchase great companies at a perceived discount.
