Remember it took 108 years to get to 10,000 and only twenty days to lose 10,000

0 is the true bottom but it will never get there.

If I had pulled out all my money a month ago, I would put it all back into the same mutual funds now. I’m kicking myself that I didn’t.

We'll know well after it's actually hit bottom, starts coming back up and stays up.
I rebalance quarterly so will be buying more index fund equities soon to get my AA back into balance. |

The reason why it is very difficult to time the bottom of the market is that, when it hits bottom, the event that caused stocks to go down is already over. The stock market reacts to anticipated future events that may or may not occur. If the event doesn't occur, then the market goes back up. If the event does occur, then it is too late to sell your stocks. Often, when a recession hits, the stock market is already on the way up because the market anticipated the recession in advance and has already bottomed out. So, you have to be able to predict the future to time the stock market.

I assume virtually nobody in the villages has all of their money in stocks. A moderate allocation would be 60/40 stocks/bonds. Before this disruption, most people should have had 3-6 months of expenses in cash. Money they may need in the next 1-3 years can be invested conservatively (maybe 20% stocks). Money they won’t need until 4-7 years can be moderately invested (40% stocks?). Money not needed for 8+ years can be invested aggressively 80-100% stocks). That’s before the disruption. If you had all of your money in stocks, this post is not for you. -if you don’t need income from your investment accounts you should be able to wait indefinitely for a recovery. THIS PART IS VERY IMPORTANT: -If you are drawing income each month or year, consider drawing only from the bonds in your account. That will give the stock portion time to recover while your cash flow is maintained. With even just 40% in bonds you could have 8 or more years before you have to touch the stocks. If you are taking Required Minimum Distributions from your IRA that you don’t need, simply reinvest the net withdrawal after tax in a non-IRA account, allocated the same way your IRA is allocated. When the recovery comes your non-IRA money will recover, too. Before you act on any of this, consult your professional investment advisor. Your mileage may vary. Subscribe to Netflix and wait it out. This too will pass. |

When you find yourself living underneath a 2 million dollar bridge you know the DOW bottomed out.
