This is my first post ever at Seeking Alpha, so please be kind. I'm not a hot-shot investment pro, just a 'Do it yourself-er'. I've managed to beat the market 11 out of the past 13 years (and every year since the Dot-com bust) by buying stock the way my Grandmother used to buy wool ("I buy a bunch when it is on sale, so that I make more money on my shirts when I sell," she used to say).
Since I am a long-term 'buy and hold' investor, I personally see a lot of value in this market. Yes, there will be ups and downs, but in the end, these 4 stocks will seem like incredible bargains, 5 to 1

Once again it's ugly out there today. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped below 11,000 for the first time in two years, plunging over 2%. The rest of the U.S. stocks are not far behind with both the Nasdaq composite and the S&P 500 down over 2% as well. It's depressing. But you don't have to look far to see a nicer picture, you just have to look up: up north that is.
