You are a new investor sap. They all come in at the top. Nothing new here.

If you knew anything about investing, you’d know that’s not true.

There were those that said getting in at 18000 was getting in at the top. Obviously, they were wrong
When the market goes to 9,000 the answer is yes.

After years, you have no choice but to hold out hope.
You can hold out hope you won’t lose your butt. All that work for for nothing.

statistically, it is equally as likely to go up as to go down. So waiting has its own risk. You choose.
Dow (and S&P) is trending down, statistically that is a bad omen for future returns. Much more reliable than your metric.
trending down? WHat are you talking about. I pull up a chart of the S&P and i see it trading in a narrow range for months now, since the first of the year anyways. In fact, it's just about even with the start of the year.
Anyone i know making calls is amazed that it isn't trending down based on all the uncertainty and bad news, trade war, etc.
Seems very resilient so far. Suprisingly so.
2,872 on 1/26/2018.
look at the graph DA. Why do i even respond if you are going to pick the peak. There's lower points than today;s close, too. Up and down. Up and down.
Do you even realize all the positive return is coming from eight stocks, while the other 492 are down, many 20%?
Look below the surface.
Blindness is common at this stage of the cycle, fueled by greed.
Ah! The old Hussman logic. Welcome back!
Do you realize you are talking to someone who probably owns most of those eight? Plus an ETF that's outperformed most everything else?
No, tell me.
How did they do today? The market will cut both ways.
“Amazon, whose 45% YTD return has contributed to 36% of the S&P 3% total return this year, including dividends.”
small drop today nothing to worry about.
Small Caps held up well.
My investment horizon is longer than one day, though. Maybe that's why i've picked solid stocks and held for many many years. Simple, really.
Interestingly the S&P 500 is at the same level as it closed on 1/3/2018. How many months is that?
Seven months. ANd seven months of dumb asses screaming the sky is falling. IT's already happening. Blah blah blah.

Will you feel that way when Amazon is at $200?
