I've been holding cash since the start of the year. I kick myself for not buying the dip April 9th or whenever it was because I thought things were going to go much lower.
But Trump is Trump.
Now that he's backed off (for now) of his hit on the Fed Chairman and seems to have chilled out on his touch talk with China, I'm going in. I should have went in two days ago.
Of course Trump could say something else and the markets head south, which I've taken into account. However, at my age, I don't think I can afford to be out of the market (time in the market as in they say).
The stocks I've been wanting to buy are 20-40% off their high's so now is the time. Would have been better when they were 30-50% off their highs.
Anyways. I'm just talking to myself and pysching myself up. Diving in with $100k. See you in 20-25 years when I retire. This will probably be a blip on the chart then.
