Best Cheap Stocks To Watch For 2019

tags:NXP,GOLD,LNDC, I was traveling to Argentina a lot in the early 2000s.   The country was in ruins. And as I explained yesterday, that experience taught me something important... After all those visits, I know what a good starting point feels like, down in my toes.   Times were tough in Argentina back then. But those tough times created a fantastic starting point for investors... It was a great opportunity to buy in cheap and make potentially huge returns.   So what does our starting point look like in the U.S. today?   At the bottom of the crisis in Argentina, money was hard to come by. And the country's benchmark stock index had fallen 90% from its highs.   It's easy to see that the U.S. today is NOT Argentina in 2002.   It's the opposite...   •   Money is easy to come by in the U.S. Interest rates are low, and every banker wants to lend you money.
  •   The stock market isn't down 90% at all... Instead, U.S. stocks have not had a losing year in the past nine years (when you include dividends).
For investors, it's all about the starting point. And the starting point today in the U.S. is, well, not good...
