How to Make Money in a Falling Market

There has been an increasing amount of talk going around, for a good reason, about the economy crashing or "correcting" in the very near future. Some people think it may be worse than the "great recession" due to the stock market, some think it will be a slight correction of the "bubble" most of the major markets are experiencing, and some think it will continue to climb. 

This post isn't about if and how bad the market might be in the near future, but how to make money throughout the entire turn. Now we all know the best time to make money and really get ahead is a recovering market, but what about the year +/- while the market is falling from it's peak to the valley?

I am wondering especially how wholesalers and flippers will make money as prices are constantly dropping since buy and hold investors will mostly stop buying until they are confident the market has gotten close to the bottom.

Looking forward to hear your thoughts, opinions, and wisdom especially from those who have endured complete market cycles.

Thank you,

Billy Bell
