I know it was a stupid thing to try to time the market (please no one else tell me lol) and I won't be doing it again, which is why I am looking to be more diverse and reducing my risk by adding more defensive funds.

Now that would be an interesting and useful thread - 'My most valuable mistake/lesson'. I'm only a year in to my investing journey but will have a think about what mine would be.
