They aren't.
Well if you've cracked that time machine, what are you doing posting here
Been an awful lot of bad news recently, markets are looking for the other side, which will come. We'll see inflation hit it's zenith in the coming months.
It ain't falling.
You're not trying to nail the bottom of the market and pile in.....but continuing to buy in during these depressed markets is how you get the good returns in the long run.
Timing the market is a mugs game but then so is buying at high valuations. I just question is a bear market really going end with the US market still above 1929 levels of valuation? I doubt it. I still DCA in anyway each month with cash ready to deploy. I don't think holding cash at this time is terrible.
But you have to ask yourself, are you an investor or a trader/speculator.

My approach is still fundamentally to DCA, but sit on my monthly contribution until there's a big downwards movement. At the moment I have two months sat in cash as that opportunity hasn't arisen in recent weeks. I do think there's a downward lurch to come....but I'm definitely not selling anything.
I bundled my SIPP into SMT when it was trading at a 15% discount, I'm happy that'll be a good move in the long run. I've got a fair chunk in Intel that is a little down at the moment after their ***** results, but that's a long term punt as I think their investment in US/EU fabs will pay off, especially if any nonsense with Taiwan kicks off. The ~1% dividend for the quarter I've got incoming beats any savings account in the meantime, although it remains to be seen how long they'll keep that up.
I bought some more VUKE with the quarterly dividends of nearly £800 ,think they are paying 4% per annum and they go ex dividend again soon ,its a nice amount ,my combo of VUKE and VWRL has given me nearly 7% over the last 3 months ,not bad considering all the gloom and doom posts

I got out at just under 26 having gotten in at $5. I believe this story has legs though and will be watching it.Oh dear. Ryan Cohen pulled the rug on BBBY and now it's down 40%+ in AH. Of course I'm still in it like an idiot.
It's cash for me at the moment.
Only have to look at ordinary people on Facebook etc over energy bills.
Could be total collapse by end of winter in UK at least. Even the big boys could be losing billions.
If that many people are in that much trouble I feel like the stock market valuations are going to totally collapse
There's only so long house prices and stock valuation can hide from this.

did he even get out? he filed to sell shares and many places were reporting it as if he sold them.Oh dear. Ryan Cohen pulled the rug on BBBY and now it's down 40%+ in AH. Of course I'm still in it like an idiot.
he owned over 10% so had to give warning he wanted to sell
Amended that he sold so Def out with a very decent profit. I saw a post on Reddit that said he could buy back in again tomorrow using solely the profits and the dramatically reduced stock price. I think this is early doors on this story, plenty more to come yet.imo.
FTSE 100 the perpetual underperformer. Last 10 years massive bull run and it returns nothing. Total return inc dividends is quite poor in my eyes and its full of planet killing companies.I bought some more VUKE with the quarterly dividends of nearly £800 ,think they are paying 4% per annum and they go ex dividend again soon ,its a nice amount ,my combo of VUKE and VWRL has given me nearly 7% over the last 3 months ,not bad considering all the gloom and doom posts

There's something poetic about these redditors handing their life savings to their idol Ryan Cohen while he laughs all the way to the bank. What a bunch of complete plums.
Well I'm certainly worried about keeping much of my net worth in British pounds given we seem to be imploding as a country.
Yeah it's kinda entertaining watching my portfolio sterling value going up during market close due to the pound sliding down the toilet.
Euro and Sterling are tanking, for some related, some different reasons. Eurozone is suffering because the economic powerhouse (Germany) is being crippled by the energy crisis and compounded by issues like the Rhine drying up, and is facing a dreadful winter of gas rationing.
The UK is less exposed to the gas supply problem, but it unfortunately highly exposed to the shower of morons in office that are systematically destroying our economy.
