[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]if you had 100k in savings, ready to put in your children's 529 or similar (won't need for 15-18 years)...would you do it now, or leave in savings and wait for a correction?[/quote]

Wait for correction.  I have $200K in 529 - my oldest is 8.  I have moved it to a conservative blend earlier this year.  I am not willing to take a correction where it will take 7 years to recover.[/quote]

Since you're so confident, what kind of a correction will you require to invest in a less conservative blend?  Is that correction based off of today's levels (e.g., 20% down from S&P 2000) or just some arbitrary peak to trough number you view as appropriate to 'correct' the incorrect market?

For every one of you clowns that gets this call right, there will be 20 that fail to earn what you would have with a consistent approach.  There's a reason Harvard, Yale, and all the other big institutions set asset allocations that rarely change. [/quote]

I am working with my financial advisor on a vaule based investment strategy.  Right now there is data that the market is overvalued.  When the indicators change I will adjust my investment mix.[/quote]
