Sven Carlin, author at Seeking Alpha, discusses the market volatility we've seen over the last several weeks and whether now is a good time to buy.
Carlin says that any investments should be looked at from a risk/reward perspective, adding that there is too much risk right now to buy. He discusses comments from American investor Ray Dalio who said that there is a 70% chance of a recession in the next two years. Carlin says those who have made a lot of money from the markets recently should sit on that cash until things settle down.
He recommends that people invest in commodities, hard assets, and cash for the time being.

A Michigan judge is putting sponges in the hands of shoplifters and ordering them to wash cars in a Walmart parking lot when spring weather arrives. Genesee County Judge Jeffrey Clothier hopes the unusual form of community service discourages people from stealing from Walmart. The judge also wants to reward shoppers with free car washes. Clothier says he began ordering “Walmart wash” sentences this week for shoplifting at the store in Grand Blanc Township. He believes 75 to 100 people eventually will be ordered to wash cars this spring. Clothier says he will be washing cars alongside them when the time comes.
