What to do after today’s stock market crash

On Monday, the Dow Jones industrial average, Nasdaq and S&P 500 reached new correction levels, as the stock market plunged. With the market at new correction levels, all rally attempts are complete, which means that investors should be on the lookout for an up-day to mark the start of a new rally attempt.

In the midst of the ever-deeper stock market correction, investors should largely – if not completely – stand on the sidelines. New purchases are prohibited. Keeping a watch list of stocks that are doing well in a declining market is also a good way to be prepared for the next upturn in the stock market.

Remember that leading stocks from the past may not be the leaders of the future. To help find stock managers emerging in a new market trend, use the relative strength line to see which stocks outperform the general market.

During a stock market correction, investors should identify companies whose stock prices are fighting the stock market’s downward trend. A strong RS line will point sharply higher, either in the base period or just after an outbreak.

Monday’s The Big Picture column commented: “Nasdaq’s loss of 4.3% on Monday cemented a three-day losing streak of more than 10%. It is the biggest drop in three days since March 2020 (during the pandemic bear market). There are three days, Loss of 1341 points is the largest recorded, according to Dow Jones Market Data. “
