Always be buying

It’s the easiest strategy to successfully implement and execute, even if it’s something simple, like only buying VOO.  With apps on your phone and tablets, automated purchasing, fractional shares, no commissions, etc., it’s never been easier.

The following is a supplemental post because I cannot attach a picture to a private message.

This is a MACD indicator on a 1 year S&P 500.  Red bars gathering below surface during a downturn and green bars above surface during an upturn.

If you are waiting until a pullback is over, you start re-entering after it goes from red to green - where I drew circles and asterisks. 

It can whipsaw, so it might be prudent to wait a week or two to see if stays in a new upward trend if you are deploying a lot of cash. 

You can use different length of charts to confirm the change.   If we keep having a sell off, I will enter when a 1 year starts to show a positive divergence that is strongly confirmed in shorter term charts like a  3 months, 6 months etc. charts.   If it was a huge selloff, I might even go to a MACD on a 5 year chart to be safe. 

Note: tradingview.com is free with up to two indicators, so since I just use it for MACD, I use the free.  In it, you just choose super-charts with is usually off to right side in middle of screen, and then you can use the row pull down menus to add indicators, which in this case is Moving Average Convergence Divergence.  Then I click through different length of charts, 3 months 6 9 , 1 year 3 years 5 years.

Also, if you invest based on emotions or politics good luck.
 

Many great stock markets have occurred under republicans and democrats. Presidents control the market much less than we are led to believe. Business cycles will well, cycle.

The yield curve un-inverted last year. The market was at the end of the cycle then.

What you mean to say is, many great opportunities to buy happen during Republican administrations.

 

What you have to think about now is - to what degree has the dollar based financial system contributed to the overwhelming bull trend of the US stock market?

 

Trump has done a lot to make countries question relying on the dollar.  I think I’ll start buying proportionally more foreign total stock funds as a hedge.
