“Good things happen to cheap stocks” (Wall Street adage)

“Good things happen to cheap stocks” is a Wall Street expression, meaning that with something priced so cheaply, the only way it can go is up. “Good things happen to cheap stocks and bad things happen to expensive ones” was printed in the book Last Chance Financial Planning Guide: It’s Not Too Late to Plan for Your Retirement If You Start Now (1997) by Anthony Spare and Paul Ciotti. It’s not known who authored the expression.
 
“My dad taught me that good things happen to cheap stocks; there are some cheap, quality stocks out there” was posted on Twitter by Raymond James on August 6, 2010. “One my favorite most respected fund managers says it best, ‘Good things happen to cheap stocks’ Steve Romick. Ill add, sprinkle in patience” was posted on Twitter by John R. Oliver on December 4, 2013. “The old saying is that good things happen to cheap stocks. The inverse also is true” was printed in Barron’s on April 2, 2019.

Grant: When I hear Jay Carney saying something, I’m constitutionally not able to be bearish. I must be bullish. Three proverbs might work in this. One is, good things happen to cheap stocks. Two is, this too will pass. And three is an epigram I credit to my friend, Joe Robillard, who says, “Successful investing is about having everyone agree with you later.” Isn’t that wonderful?
