Despite recent volatility there are still a number of investments which offer good value, according to one expert.
Nick Raynor, investment adviser at the Share Centre, explained a number of shares are currently undervalued, meaning people could pick up a bargain.
He said: "We are encouraging investors to fully research any investments they are considering and that they make the most of alert and monitoring tools such as stop loss limits and price targets."
Long-term investors should consider "tweaking" their strategy and "gradually" invest money in the market to reduce the chance of buying over priced shares, he added.
Mr Raynor also highlighted a number of shares which he considers appealing.
These include, National Grid, Pennon, Northumbrian and Tesco .
