I put in my buy order today, VOO @ 251.25 for 1094 shares, total value ~$275,000. I am going to take a bet that the market will be higher end 2018. Even though it’s crazy I think the market has solid momentum.[/quote]
You do realize that securities can be bought and sold right?? I did buy those shares but I sold them all when it hit 260 for a handsome gain and bought back in around 236-245, even Warren Buffet himself could not have timed it more perfectly. While my timing in the housing market sucks looks like it does not quite suck in the stock market, perhaps I should become a trader LMAO! Actually it was a mistake to get out of the market, as the long term philosophy is to stay in which is what I learned from bogleheads.
This time I am in permanently, I am not selling anything even if it goes up!
