Easiest way is the hardest way (not for impatient investors)

Ever heard of the phrase:
"Time in the market beats timing the market"?

What it means is to buy fundamentally good stocks / ETF for long term and dollar cost average into them.

Just take a look at $SPDR S&P 500 ETF(SPY.US)$ over 10 years.

The dips may last for a few months, but after those dips, it's back to all time highs.

The reality is, no one can time the market consistently. Trying to do so is simply gambling with a coin flip.
Sure, if you time the dips properly you may get better returns. But with DCA, you don't even need to be skilled to earn money.

Imagine if you were to buy at the "peaks", you may see paper loss over a few months. The key is to buy in consistently, to dollar cost average down. Reap the juicy returns when the market does well.

As usual, DCA is the best strategy in the long run.
