If you're like me, you like to purchase things when they are on sale.
You'll load up on hamburger meat and freeze some when you can buy two pounds for the price of one…
You search for bargains online during the holiday season because one website sells the product you want for less…
Or you wait around for something you really want to buy – that no one else is purchasing – and watch the price drop and drop until you get it on the cheap.
That same pattern holds for stocks.
