[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Buy and hold a balanced portfolio of stocks and bonds that you dollar-cost average, and stop trying to time the market. [/quote]

As someone who has maxed out my 401k since getting my first job at age 23 and since then has without fail for ~312 pay cycles has plowed a portion of my net income via automatic deposit into index funds, i can tell you the above advice is the way to go. If I had wrung my hands about every "prediction" I would have made some pretty stupid moves. Instead I just forget about it and some times take a peek and come to the happy realization that I will in the near future no longer be a wage slave.[/quote]

Same here.  I have been maxing out my 401 k in all equity for over thirty years.  Not as disciplined as PP about plowing back more into index funds via automatic deposit.  My index funds also are all equity.  Have tended to do it more in lumps from time to time (no attempt to time market) because I value having high cash reserves and only put in more to the index funds when cash is a worthwhile amount over my instantly liquid funds goal. Should probably rethink the cash bit....[/quote]
