| Spores and errant airplanes may haunt the average American, but that doesn't mean he's panicking. Though past trades can't be undone, investors can set up their holdings to minimize the danger of panicking again the next time the markets suffer a jolt. That seems to be the attitude among area investors who, far from panicking at Monday's 554-point stock market drop, saw it as an opportunity to gobble up shares in attractive companies they believed were sure to bounce back, say both investors and investment experts. |
