The global coronavirus pandemic has been roiling the stock market for several months now.

Ottawa Edward Jones Financial Advisor Kim Krueger says that’s not a reason to sell everything in your stock portfolio in a panic.

Krueger says with stocks dropping in value, now could a buying opportunity.

She’s advising people to remember that everyone is in this together and that we will get through it.

Mark Platt is also a Financial Advisor with Edward Jones. He says there is uncertainty.

Platt is suggesting that people increase 401K contributions and possibly buy into some stocks while they’re cheap.
