[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weirdos trying to time the market [/quote] It's not really timing the market. I usually have an extra couple of hundred thousand lying around in cash. When the markets start to go down, I buy the market. For example, I purchased VTI in March or April for about $245, and have not bought since. Should there be another pull-back, I'll invest again. I basically never sell, so I don't feel it is timing the market, just putting money into the market at attractive prices. I can wait many months for the next correction to put the money back to work. If I accumulate too much cash, and the market hasn't corrected, then I'll spread some purchases over a few months to reduce my cash.[/quote] So ...you're trying to time the market [/quote]
