Following a down day for stocks, investors don't need to run and hide just yet, Brian Kelly of Brian Kelly Capital said Wednesday.

Major stock indices saw sharp declines, posting the worst start to October since 2011. The Russell 2000 also moved into correction territory, down 10 percent from its July high, and 13 percent of its stocks hitting new 52-week lows.

"You can't get too bearish here until the dips aren't bought, and this is a dip," Kelly said. "So, until this dip is not bought, you can't be bearish. That being said, you have some changing economic fundamentals around the world."

But this week's European Central Bank meeting and the U.S. payroll report on Friday were two more points to watch, he added.
