[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If there’s a crash buy into the market with more cash. Trying to time the market is pointless unless you have insider information. [/quote] This is the only time that I try to time the market. If I see the S&P 500 down 10% to 20% from its peak, I will put 1% to 2% of my net worth (sitting in cash) in to the index. Other than that, I don't time the market. I just invest steadily by maxing out my 401K and IRA every year and buying equity index or bond index funds over time. As a Federal employee at age 46, I'm about 69% equities and 31% bonds/fixed income. I will likely dial the risk down to a 60/40 split as I get closer to retirement. [/quote]
