- A strategist at a $1 trillion firm says the stock market's recent meltdown was a good thing. The sell-off "made expectations more realistic, and it's clearly improved valuations, even with the bounce we've seen since then," Kate Warne, an investment strategist at Edwards Jones, told Business Insider. "I think there's more upside now than there was before December — that the pullback actually probably gave the bull market fuel for some period of time."
