Nope. Do it now and wait for trump to close the margin of error. Once stocks skyrocket pull out then before the correction.

Your call. I'd cost average it in though. The odds if you not being totally screwed is better.

Yesterday would have been a great day to invest it. The market was up big today.
A democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. And that's why the USA is a constitutional republic and not a democracy.

Same. Did 33% in one account alone when I dumped a chunk in this Spring. Didn't do the math on my Roth IRA yet, but it's smaller, around 15% and I'll continue to DCA until next tax season. Trump should be in office by then, then I'll do another round of higher DCA for the next upward trend.
