Well I certainly did…………..
Not…..
I wished that I had correctly timed the market and bought into the market at its lowest during March. I also wished that I was so confident about it that I had dumped a huge chunk of my war chest into the market. Unfortunately, that is just not possible…. Well, not for me anyways.... Emotionally, it is just too difficult.
The next best thing that I can do, which is what I actually did, is to buy on the dip. I was buying a small amount of STI when the market was going down by more than 1% and I would buy more if it goes down more. At least by doing that, I managed to deploy some of my war chest into the market at an ok average price. Emotionally, if STI goes up, I am happy. If STI goes south...
