Days like today are why I DCA. I'll keep buying into the market even as it declines.
DCA is not as mathematically beneficial as lump sum but psychologically it keeps me sane.
My decision point is whether to invest even more dry powder to accelerate the DCA or just let it ride with my consistent buys every 2 weeks.
I know you know this, but you’re getting awfully close to market timing with this strategy. A disciplined DCA is one thing, as is lump sum investing, but breaking the plan to do something different is really no different than timing.

Why you getting mad bro? I wasn’t being facetious. For whatever reason I thought year to date was year over year.

Just because the Dow Jones is up doesn’t mean the individual stocks I’m in are.

The problem with investing is you need to know when to sell AND when to buy.
Say, you sell an index fund today (after the loss from yesterday) for $100k.
Now, you hope the market continues to drop so you can buy it back at a lower cost. If it does continue to drop, when do you decide to buy back?
It's not that easy of a call.

That only works if you have money. Some have to sell to open up funds

I’m not an expert but if you’re buying index funds you should not be repositioning very much. When’s the last time a major index went down year over year? It’s a long term play IMO

Not sure wtf some of you own
Growth, momentum, some small caps. Been getting hammered for a few weeks, and I bought them at relative bottom s with many having a MACD crossover. I’m just going to limit the stocks I’m in and be more surgical, go after larger caps.
What are you in? I was looking at REITS because they are good for inflation, but they already exploded
The nasdaq is being held up by the big guys. The rest isn’t doing so well. Large cap nasdaq growth are getting to overbought levels. The rest are slipping downward slowly it seems

Growth tilt, but relatively market neutral with respect to mark caps. I’ve got AMZN, TMO, NEE, and PINS for individual stocks. SLI now too.
Just hasn’t been a brutal couple weeks in the overall market, hence my legitimate question.
If you’re overweight to small caps or something, I can see the problem.
