You should always be investing because timing the market is a fools errand. The question is how much?

- rohit2412 8y agoIsn't that timing too? Or it is wise when you allocate 5/95 split to stock/bond but fool's errand when it is 0/100

I'd personally keep dry powder for when the market is far beyond the standard deviation of historical records. 2008 and 2018 would both be years this is true. Shorting though is only for the brave or stupid. Personally, I put a certain amount in every quarter.
