Market timing not necessary for investment success


Our concerns have not changed that the rally may be temporary euphoria, but it should be clear to you why we don’t promote market timing.  If anyone can consistently synthesize all the necessary factors to get you in and out at exactly the right time (and all known empirical data suggests that person has not yet been born), it is not us.  Fortunately, such timing is not necessary for long-term financial and investment success.  What is necessary is a disciplined plan driven by your needs and goals.  The role of an advisor is to help you maintain the discipline through violent market swings and rebalancing as needed.
