n the early 1980s, the time to buy stocks was when inflation raged and the economy was in the tank. In short, bad news is an investor's best friend. It lets you buy a slice of America's future at a marked-down price.

I’m not one to usually want regulations but offering DoorDash installment plans should be illegal.

This thing has more ups and downs than a new brides pajamas!
