The Stock Market Just Had 2 of Its Worst Back-to-Back Days in 75 Years. Here's What History Says Happens Next.

After "Liberation Day" (April 2), in which President Donald Trump unveiled tariff rates far higher than virtually all investors suspected, the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) experienced a whopping 10.5% plunge. History suggests that this is likely a great time for long-term-oriented investors to buy. According to Stansberry Research, the April 3-4 tumble is the fourth-worst two-day stretch in the market since 1950.

Stock Market Sell-Off: 2 Stocks That Could Double in 2 Years

Investors have been left scratching their heads after President Trump announced global tariffs on April 2, then put the "reciprocal" tariffs with most of the world on pause for 90 days, stepped up a trade war with China, and has since flip-flopped on duties on tariffs on electronics while saying he may pull back tariffs on autos. While investors may be nervous about the trade war and the increasing risk of a recession, long-term investors know that sell-offs represent buying opportunities as quality businesses just got cheaper. Investors can't run away from Target (NYSE: TGT) fast enough, it seems.

The Smartest S&P 500 ETF to Buy With $500 Right Now

There's no getting around the fact that most stocks have reacted strongly to President Trump's recent tariff announcements. The volatility in the market in early April caused some massive price swings from the S&P 500, including a 9.5% surge in one day after the previous four trading sessions brought it down by 12%. Unfortunately, more market instability could be on the way as countries and businesses navigate the current tariff situation and try to determine how it might impact them and the economy.

Where Will Berkshire Hathaway Be in 3 Years?

While much of the stock market has sold off hard due to tariffs and economic worries, one stock that has held up very well is Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A) (NYSE: BRK.B). Berkshire's Chief Executive Officer Warren Buffett has lived up to his nickname, as the "Oracle of Omaha" smartly pared back the company's equities positions and accumulated a stockpile of cash in the process. Last year, he reduced the company's equity exposure, including top holdings Apple and Bank of America, as the market soared.

Down 18%, Is Microsoft Stock a Buy on the Dip Before April 30?

Investors have shunned stocks in favor of safe-haven assets like cash, so the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) is currently down 14% from its record high. History proves the U.S. stock market always climbs to new highs over the long term, so the recent declines might give investors a great opportunity to buy some of America's highest-quality stocks at a discount. Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) is one that comes to mind.
