- It depends. If you are in for the long term, then any time is
- a good time to get in.
-
- But if you are in for the intermediate or short term, then you may
- want to be a little bit extra careful.
- For one thing, the stock market is a little bit over-valued and is
- pretty vulnerable to a reasonable down slide. At least that's what
- many experts think.
- Then, growth stocks have been everybody's darlings for the last couple
- years. Which means they may not have lots of upside potential left in them.
-
- So, if you are in for the short or intermediate term, you may want to
- wait a little before jumping in. In any case, do not commit all
- your money to stocks. Split your investments between stocks, bonds
- and cash with no more than 60% in stocks...Your mileage may vary...
