...its a hard game.. unless you just invest monthly and leave for years..
Yes, and particularly if you do this using low cost trackers.I am not a financial adviser and neither do I play one on television. I might occasionally give bad advice but at least it's free.
Like all religions, the Faith of the Invisible Pink Unicorns is based upon both logic and faith. We have faith that they are pink; we logically know that they are invisible because we can't see them.0 -
This latest market slump definitely has a long way to go before we're back to the situation last September...unfortunately. I'm looking at some of the strong companies I could have bought last year at good prices, like Colgate, which are now still well above the prices they fell too.
I'm thinking there may be less opportunity this year for some bargain buys but I'll keep looking, reading Cisco's annual report atm.Faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.0 -

Yes, it seems that way to me too. The problem is that dividend/value investing is now the new black!I am not a financial adviser and neither do I play one on television. I might occasionally give bad advice but at least it's free.

5284 just after opening today. Maybe we'll be looking at September/October 2011 levels of just below 5000 again before long?
The MSCI index is now indicating world share prices are below where they began the year.I'm salivating at the thought of another FTSE at 5000 during 2012
Got loads more cash to take advantage of it this year
You must be getting a bit more excited now! There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes, By the deep sea, and music in its roar: I love not man the less, but Nature more...0 -
Maybe Im dreaming, but Im hoping for FTSE 4000

Anything is possible but I hope it does not hit that low, still got 50% of portfolio invested but that includes purchases in last few days
you've still bought when things are off the boil ...cant be that bad...RSI is now below 30...normally a good signal..
