> You're much better positioned for a large loss if you are up hundreds of % first (the SP500 is up 300% or so in the past decade). And to add to this, dollar cost averaging means if you drop from 300% gains to 200% gains (let's say the market drops 100% for a laugh), you're not only still up 200%, but as your (automated) investment strategy continues to buy stocks you're now buying them at a massive discount. When they climb again, you won't be up 300% again, you'll be up closer to 1,000% (a lot, anyway.) |
