        I would think that what you are suggesting is just plain common sense.

        That is like me suggesting: “Hey, just don’t be poor.”

        Or, “Whenever the US starts a war, invest in companies that make weapons and missile parts.”

        I mean, I made money on that last one.

    Communities are small. If the question is interesting it might get good replies.

    There’s not much to say to a post like this one, so I almost didn’t reply :)

    Market timing questions are likely off-topic here, so no, this isn’t the right community.

    If you want high level, buy and hold investing discussion, this is a decent place, especially if you’re looking for answers about funds in a workplace retirement account or something.

    No one here has a crystal ball. If you invest in broad ETFs, the best time to start investing is now. Just do some DCA and hope that over time your investment will surpass the inflation.
