Yesterday, as the stock markets faltered further, President Obama told the American public that now might just be the time to go in, "Buying stocks is a potentially good deal if you've got a long-term perspective on it," as he said his policies wouldn't be determined by "day-to-day gyrations of the stock market." The Daily News spoke to some New Yorkers to ask them what they thought of the President's suggestion: One woman said, "I'm not buying any stocks now. [My investments] are sitting in cash. I don't think we hit bottom yet," while another man was also wary, "I lost a lot of my retirement in the stock market." However, one person was bullish, "There are good stocks out there. There are fundamentally sound companies," but then he admitted, "I'm a financial adviser, so it means more business for me."
