Yep--No fear: SAN FRANCISCO -- A poll of 500 Charles Schwab & Co. (SCH) customers Wednesday found that more than 94% were "comfortable" with their investment approach following Tuesday's market volatility. In a press release Friday, Charles Schwab said 12% of respondents said the volatility has "shaken long-term confidence" in the stock market. Fifty-seven percent of those responding said they expect the Dow Jones Industrial Average to rise during the next six months, and 60% said they expect Nasdaq to rise during the same period. Of the customers who said they were planning changes to their portfolios, 79% said they would buy stock and 35% said they plan to sell stock. Ninety-five percent of the investors said they believe the stock market is the best place for long-term investments. interactive.wsj.com^SCH
