Jenna, a successful investor has more than enough money to be invested for the long term and still be an active trader. Even though my core's were down in the past week, they are still up significantly for the year. Looking at the past year, more than 68%. That's to say nothing of the fact that some of them are up 300% to 1000% over the past two years. Don't forget the advantage of the capital gains tax. The results far exceed whatever one can get in a cash position since one can't be fully invested everyday unless they are playing with limited funds. There were some great bargains to be had in the sell off Tuesday and I bought up some of them when they triggered core buys for me. If they get taken out (some already up 15% since I bought them) I'll exit them with more than a five percent profit. It's the smart way to make money. Sitting on one's cash may appear on the face of it to be safe but it will certainly limit ones total capital appreciation.
