When" things level out" is when I feel that it is the right time for me whenever that is. It is when I think the downturn may have hit bottom. Will I be right.…
When things level out intend to buy some more
The problem is, how will you know when it's the time when things level out? It's easy to look back and see it as such.

What is the mutual fund holding period to avoid early redemption fee at Fidelity and Schwab? I've been at TDA only for a short time, the main problem I had was when I called to inquire about commissions re certain mutual funds/ETFs, the rep was not …
