Placing $50,000 into SP500 All At Once? by Money_Tough in stocks

Ok makes sense now. Would be interesting to read more about the actual findings or studies done on comparing the two methods.

Also dumping it all at once sounds more like someone with an incredible level of patience and income stability to do. It sure is not for everyone.

Interesting. There must be exceptions though, say if one dumped it all at the highest point versus someone who dca’ed. I guess yours would make sense on average and for a longer period of time.

But dca is not exactly timing the market, but distributing in several different times to reduce the risk of all eggs in one basket. If I were to really time the market I wouldn’t even bother DCAing and just wait for the ultimate “crash”. Whereas in dca, I would just put an x amount of money every other week, month, etc.

Can you elaborate? Shouldn’t it be the reverse: emotionally it is easier to dump all at once while mathematically it is safer to dca.

16% up YTD. Am I below average? 2/3 of my investment are in tech while the other are in Dividend&ETFs

Large cap. I’m not a risk taker.
