Since you can not time the market I agree with you that now is a good time to buy. Be sure to list the beneficiaries on the account if you do not have any special estate objectives.
It may appear that the stock market is dropping like a rock. But, do the math. The S&P 500 Index closed today at only 3.5 percent lower than is was one year ago. So, it may not be as good a deal as it may seem.
