[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. Thanks for all the advice folks! I'm predominantly a buy-and-hold investor that has some money on the sidelines. My question was about committing this new money. Is it better to stay on the sidelines (in bonds or MM) or invest in the market with a stop loss (8-10%)? Best case scenario, no market crash and I participate in the market gain. Worse case, there's a crash (real or fake) and I get stopped out.. No biggie. I'm back to my money market. Am I right with this approach or am I missing something? [/quote] The market is at all-time highs quite often, and much more than the average investor might think. What you’re basically saying is that you believe you can predict the future…so can you? The best investing advice I ever received was to simply NEVER SELL. And this is exactly the reason why: https://awealthofcommonsense.com/2014/02/worlds-worst-market-timer/[/quote]
