yes, but as warren buffett says, there's never been a good time to bet against the S&P.
i dunno, i realise valuations are high but on a 5-10 year horizon im not sure there's a better bet...
True, he also says buy low sell high ...
I prefer 'buy high, sell higher'. Cheap usually remains cheap for much longer than anyone expects and you just pay opportunity cost.
Yep, that works too ... just buy high sell low you need to avoid ...
i feel i have zero ability to time the market. after 2008 i remember people telling me there was way more volatility still to come, which at the time seemed very plausible. i parked a lot of savings in cash and missed a lot of the huge bull run that followed.
it almost feels like theres a huge backstop to markets now, because central banks have shown that if anything really massive/systemic happens, they will cut rates and/or use QE to bail everything out
So do we all ... if we could do that with any reliability we'd all be minted ... it's difficult and most fund managers can't do it so there is no reason to think I could ... I have tried ... I'm on a 2 win 1 loss attempt and I'm not doing it any more ... last one was painful ...
