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

What are they telling people to do on Truth Social? How do we not believe that the Iran controversy isn't partially about market manipulation? During the Trump presidency, it seems like you should buy when he says buy.

And don't fall for the G7 "gimmicks" of releasing oil from the SPR. They just want to stop the bleeding for a day. The market will resume it's downside tomorrow because it's about the long term not the short term.

And this is why no drop will be sustained. EVERYONE HAS FOMO. Everyone is gunning for the best days of market, where they buy and prices climb 5-6% (usually from a small drop and then an overshoot recovery).

Look at at today's indexes, it's always a U curve.

The algo and HFT are standing by with buckets of cash to trade any wobble down, and make $$$$ from that tiny arbitrage.

I’m hoping gold and gold miners rise much higher. I want to sell all my ETFs and buy other stuff. Not really sure what. AVDV? VT? VOO? QQQM? I still feel like markets have a ways to fall for some reason tho. No idea what to do.

All right I decided to be socially responsible and bought healthcare and clean energy. They perform best in recession and recovered fastest post war.

Please, drop tickers what you are buying today!!

Just go back and read threads during this same time last year. Tells you all you need to know about the panic that sets in around here at every turn. I predict S&P 7500 at end of year. But then again - I know absolutely nothing like the rest of you. I’m just smart enough to understand that I know absolutely nothing and you can’t time anything.
