The Gambling what people like. Its the gambling that is game but for things that don't like what the person like. So bad is a thing that scares the person. But the person still gamble to get the money.

This is an awful time to play investor lol. The peak time was March. Any later than that and you already lost the best prices.

Sold off my southwest stock for a small profit and picked it back up after it dropped harshly today

You can make money at any point in time in stock markets. It just takes more effort and more creative vehicles, some of which are rather more costly simple share purchase.

That said right now the "Buy low and sell high, maybe getting some dividends along the way" long in the market thing means you probably ought to be going really really long before you expect a return, much less a return above what a basic savings account might have given you or otherwise being above inflation.
