Sorry to be flippant, but the stock market always goes up. Economic studies analysed data going back to 1600s showed that, and along those years, major turmoils have also occured. And yet the stock market always recovers afterwards every time. The only turmoil that would invalidate that thesis is a nuclear war.

That's not to say to gamble everything on the stock market. Put in only what you can afford to lose. If you can't then don't. Sorting out personal finances is more important. My comment is to dispel the notion you have to be rich to buy shares. Owning a fraction is still better than nothing. After all, investing has proven to outpace inflation every time than saving alone.
