CSense is a Necessity in an Economic Downturn Wednesday, August 19, 2009

There are two rarely acknowledged benefits of an economic downturn; it's a wakeup call to cut production costs and it gives you more time to think about how you're going to do that cutting. Just a year ago, cutting production costs was the first item on the agenda – now it's the only item on the agenda. And the old adage of being too busy to try something new can no longer be used as an excuse because a slowdown, no matter how modest, gives you the ideal opportunity to implement improvements so that you'll be ready for the inevitable upturn.

According to Warren Buffett, possibly one of the greatest investors of all time, "Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful." Since the Great Depression of 1929, there's never been a more opportune time to be greedy and to want a bigger share of the pie when the economy turns. It's Buffett's opinion that "...most major companies will be setting new profit records 5, 10 and 20 years from now."
