interesting comment.

since the bear market started, wouldn’t this be a good time to buy at bargain prices?

Give it a month or two to confirm the bear market started. If the bear market has truly started it has plenty of room to fall.

Bargain prices are at the crash. Beginning of the bear market is by definition the time when prices will continue to decline.

(I'm leaving it up to you to decide if it's a short-term correction, beginning of bear streak or anything else)

when everybody including Goldman is expecting a crash , is it really a crash ?

buy when there is nothing but negativity and depressive comments on the stock market; once we are there it is a signal of the bottom
