Big difference. Last year the chaos was from Trumps tariffs and he could and did unilaterally TACO. Now the chaos is from his Iran war. It’s clear he wants to TACO, but Israel and Iran are making that complicated. Maybe he’ll figure out how to get out but he probably won’t


So in other words, you think a market timing strategy will work this time?


Where did I say that?


What point are you trying to make then? The whole thread pertains to market timing.


You and your marketing timing. EVERY time you buy/sell, it’s a market timing. We all get your point but some of us have too much cash and already doing max contributions via work. Give it a rest

This thread is about buying, not selling.


If you are timing the market you are just as stupid about buying now vs selling. Just have a plan and stick to it.

Can the fake day traders in here just stop - Of course the markets are now positive for the day. (And this doesn't matter other than all the doom & gloom and "futures" nonsense). It's a fluid situation

I’m not selling but slowly buying in and my main capital is not even deployed yet. I do think we may have several “deeps” before midterm


If your main capital isn't deployed you missed out on a ton of gains. You can't speak out of both sides of your mouth like stupid financial TV contributors. Feel free to do what's best for your situations, but these general statements are total BS


The thing is I didn’t miss anything my risk appetite was different when the market was bull. Now that stocks look lore affordable I can invest more in stocks, having in mind 3-5 years perspective from now

What Trump does today will be a blip on the chart in 5 years from now
