I’m in the same boat. I have a couple more grand to slow invest over the next week or two, but I’m holding back the majority until later.

Bought some

DAL
JPM
CVX
OXY
AUPH

Now I’ll wait for someone to announce either a vaccine or the peak of the curve and invest the rest.

The market is incredibly toxic (duh), but think of the rally if this virus ends up being a relative dud.

Made one big move this morning after the Ackerman scare. Got one pocket left for trading and will hold for 2200 S&P which is approximately a 35% correction. At 40% (2035) I'm gonna be ALL IN!

I got downvoted to oblivion three days ago for suggesting 21,200 wasn’t near the bottom. What did people expect?

Bought more today of the same three things I have been picking up every day since we flirted with down 20-25 percent....

averaged in a little early when we played at 30 ish so going to still purchase every day but a little less amount...expected to break 30 but not at this speed ... lowering my daily purchase amount so I will have plenty if we break 40-50.....( really did not think and still hope we do not see this)
And may hang at the bottom longer than I expected... so may have time to react at the bottom and on way up ( which I am very very bad at....just slow at this for some mental reason....I know this from experience)

I expected it to hit low then rebound just a tad then get dragged back down over next few months as earning were announced..... then very very fast pop way back up after virus over and earnings damage done

Gotta say .... beginning to see blood in the street now.....

Same thoughts here. Been buying since mid February but don’t want to dip into emergency fund cash at this point.

Shows the truth in the saying “the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay liquid” lol.

It has been incredibly hard but I've held the line and haven't thrown in a dollar of my cash yet. Waiting for more pain.

i made small purchases at or around the 15% drop levels. Have a huge chunk of change on sidelines waiting when to go in. I figured this shite would keep dropping like a rock. Would not be shocked to see this hit 15k DJIA.

I’ve DCA on some of the big dips (and small ones at first). Saving my last chunk for a Hail mary if it drops another 2-4k
