You never know and if you did, you'd be rich.
My long term retirement funds are mostly indexed, in which I re-balance a few times a year as needed. I will swing trade good companies in my brokerage account though. Buy on a dip when I think I can see support. Sell for a quick 3% gain. Then go find another. I originally would try to find a smaller stock to try to make a greater profit on. Sat/Sold too much for loses looking for the golden ticket. Sticking to trading major companies is much easier if you realize small gains can be useful.

That’s true. I’m very picky about which one to purchase though. I mean c’mon. There was a great bull market in December.
Amazon was down 3k and they are ****ing Amazon. They rule the world. Easy to see they would go back up.
And they are up roughly 32% since that dip. Sheesh
