RE: "We know where we should have put it(SPY JAN 12!!) but for those who didn't or could have put more in, what about the next move?"

If you have new money you are trying to put to work,

1. Determine your desired equity/fixed income allocation.
2. Invest any money needed to bring your fixed income portion up to your desired allocation in short term bonds or GNMAs. Invest this money in a lump sum as soon as possible.
3. If your equity position is less than your desired asset allocation, place the money into a money market account. Transfer 1/12th of the money into equities each month. If another buying opportunity occurs, lump-sum the rest into equities.

Best wishes,

I2

My point exactly. I hate to see valuable air time taken up telling me what I shoulda done or coulda done.
