I myself see a big pullback coming in the next six months but I don’t know that I have ever been correct over 45 years. I will put a lot of money in if a 10% pullback comes. I expect you r being prudent depending on how old you are. The thing is, if you’re young, you might as well stick it out and not try to time. He said.

@MJG,
A false counter.
And as for overglorification and valorization, you have not been to a sporting event recently, sounds like.
No one is arguing about relatives who showed courage and dutifulness during wartime.
Today Trump praised the world's worst dictator and promised to stop military exercises with South Korea, in exchange for nothing. Reports indicate that both the South Koreans and Dept of Defense were caught completely offguard by this. Who told him …
What do the 'angry arguments' have to do with taking MFO seriously? You ever used MFO Premium? Just stick to the financial discussions if you don't want to read about policy that is related, but not directly, to personal finance.
