OT: buy&hold vs timing :
one of the benefits I have discovered of the LTB&H approach, is that I DO NOT expect overnight gains, I look (out of curiosity) at these stocks once every few months.
(net-net : close to 0 effort in monitoring a portfolio, and the returns have been "good enough" for me).

If I were to do TA, time entry points and all those wonderful aspects of participating in the equities market, I'd have to give up my "day job", which provides a steady source of income.

TBL : one may win/loose with a timing perspective. One will have to put in significantly more effort with this strategy.

With a LTB&H (over multiple years, not minutes), one is more likely to eventually be a winner, with no effort/heartaches.

cheers, kumar
