@rickythesteadyinvestor: What if you perfectly timed the S&P 500 every year for 30 years? One investor always buys at the exact daily high. The other always buys at the exact daily low. Both invest $10,000 every year. After 30 years, perfect timing added only about $27,000 to a portfolio worth more than $1.8 million. The biggest advantage wasn’t timing the market. It was consistently investing and giving the money decades to compound. #SP500 #moneytok #IndexFunds #LongTermInvesting #TheSteadyInvestor

Curious how this would change if you only purchased on days ending in the red

I get it. It’s an experiment, but it’s so super unlikely that it’s utterly useless/meaningless.

most people have probably heard this, but time in the market beats timing the market

What if they only invested 1 time a year but investor A bought at the top each year while investor B bought at the yearly bottom

The problem is you have to actually backtest this, because a lot of that 10% per year doesn’t happen on those average movement days. I’ve heard that some number like 15 days in ten years count for the majority of those gains. If you take that into account, the whole takeaway is no longer true, because those lowest buyers on the biggest moving days benefit much more.

Yeah that’s only the diff of the first day +- a few dollars. If you do the top of the market of the year vs bottom low for the year 10k each year, i would think it would be wildly different. Then you would need a control, like dollar cost averaging taking the median price per day on some candence through out the year.

drastically different outcome when you predict which is the best category each year such as large growth, Large value, small cap, emerging markets, bonds, etc.

Hi Ricky as an individual investor is it possible to beat the S&P every year during 30 consecutive years?

what about this one. an invester would by 1000 dollars in s&p500, each month for 10 years, at the beginning of the month. an other investor would buy $500 of S&p, everytime the s&p would have 3 censecutive "loss" days. if no 3 days have been present in the month, he takes his money to the next month. the investor cannot put more money in the s&p then he gathered during the privious months. who would do better?

What if we keep the same premise but the timer spreads out his $10k investment over the year and bought the daily low everyday for that duration

in crypto the average difference between the high and the low of the day can be +70% on carefully selected trading pairs
