absolutely, you should always sell at a price lower than you bought. chances are, the stock market won't recover and your stocks will be worth less in 10 years than they are now. sell immediately.

Trump will probably call for an infrastructure plan in tonight's SOTU address -- that should bolster markets tomorrow. If it doesn't, I'm dumping a lot of positions tomorrow. Thankfully, I'd already dumped some this weekend. My guess is that we'll see a rebound, though - this isn't the real crash (which is still some months away, IMO) and is merely some profit-taking.

All of the leaked infrastructure plans basically call for public private partnerships (because gop already blew up the deificit to pay for the tax cuts). Unless they signicantly change the plan, doubt it will make much of a difference.

let me ask a follow-up question - why do you think that you can time the market successfully?

What is this, intro to financial markets 101?

I do not think I can time the markets successfully; the only thing I have confidence in is my risk tolerance, which is very low.

"I do not think I can time the markets successfully."

you made both of these statements, in the above order, in fairly close proximity to one another.

I cannot time whether the next turn on the roulette wheel will be in my favor, but I know my own risk toletance, and take gains when I feel I’ve won enough and continuing in the game is no longer worth the risk - particularly since I can’t time it.

The market may rise or fall - the only thing I can control is my willingness to take more risk as calculated against existing earnings vs potential additional future earnings.

This is not timing the market - it’s saying I’m comfortable with my gains and wish to minimize risking them.

so you are removing this money and will never again invest it in stocks? because if you plan on buying back in at some point, you are trying to time the market.

Listen, everyone understands the basic buy and hold theory, that timing the market doesn’t work, that selling and re-buying causes lower gains over the long term.

I’m not arguing against any of that, and am fully conscious of the implications involved in having low risk tolerance. I’m just happy with my gains now and don’t want to swing the roulette again in the near term.

this is stupid, UNLESS you are taking those gains and spending them on something (eg, house down payment). in that case, I can completely see the wisdom of taking the gains now because you need the money and have at least an inkling the market may be correcting.

if you're going to eventually put that money back in the market, however, you are being inconsistent in your statements because you are absolutely trying to time the market.

this isn't low risk tolerance, it's stupidity.

I frankly don’t know what I’ll do with the money.

Again, you are premising your statements on buy and hold theory, which I do not dispute.

I’m telling you I’m premising mine on low risk tolerance. I understand that I may miss out on some gains, and I’m comfortable with that. That’s not stupidity, because my goal isn’t maximizing gains, so I’m not working contrary to my goals.

any rational person has the following as their investment theory: have more money in 20-30 years than when you started.

if you are investing in the stock market solely to enjoy "low risk tolerance," then you are the first person I've ever heard that from. and how are you lowering your risk tolerance by selling when you think the peak has arrived? by and large, as I think you know, it is nearly impossible to predict these things, and so you are enlarging your risk, i.e., that you incorrectly called the top of the market and took some gains.

This is all full of unfounded assumptions:

1) The goal of my brokerage account is to generate growth and fund medium-term activities. My long-term needs are being accounted for by my Roths and 401K. Thus, the goal of my brokerage account is not to have more money 20-30 years from now, but to have more money over the next 2-8 years.

2) Can you read? Where did I imply I invest in the stock market solely for my “ low risk tolerance”? I also have CDs, savings accounts, and bond funds for those purposes.

3) And yet again, you mischaracterize someone who doesn’t want to place another bet as someone who believes they know which way the next bet will go. If I choose to cash out now, it’s because I’m comfortable with my gains and don’t wish to bet again, not because I think the next bet will fail. Someone who is timing the market is exiting because they think the n day bet will fail, and that they can re/enter easily at a better moment. I’m not that cocky or foolhardy.

I don't think risk tolerance means what you think it means. BEcause as you use it here it's just describing market timing.

Hint- "I think it's going to be risky to be in this in the short term" isn't a risk tolerance issue. That's market timing.

hindsight is useless. If markets went down in the last month, then you would say I shouldve wait. Sometimes lump sum pays off, sometimes it doesn’t. This isn’t money I’m touching for many years so unless you can tell me what the market will be 20 years from now, I’m not going to worry about a 5% return in a month.

Also I’m looking at other investments so dont want to go all in on stock market right now anyway.

nutella's strategy is simple. "buy the dips"

Julia is so stupid she's convinced herself that she's going to "time" the market for when it "crashes" so she can "buy" in at those sweet low prices. She watched The Big Short and now believes she's some market mastermind.

buy the dip, sell the rip. Works nearly every time in a raging bull market.

Do you rebuy the dip if it keeps dipping after you buy? Asking for a friend (not Julia though. She’s got this down).

No real meat to the infrastructure plans from last night, so probably further crashing. Will be negated slightly by people buying the dips.

That was a brief recession. I hope you all made it. Especially Julia. Would miss her.

Her very complex, objective risk management parameters inform her to liquidate when she has a bad feeling.

Should have bought the dip nerds

At this point if you bought a lot a year ago your so far away from your cost basis that these dips don't hurt

Always long the incel economy
