<p>[QUOTE=&quot;passantgardant, post: 1162257, member: 30033&quot;]Since you&#039;ve clearly established that you have zero facts or reasoning to defend your wrong-headed opinions, perhaps you should just leave the commenting to those of us with something worthwhile to say.&nbsp; It seems to me that you&#039;ve accumulated a basket of rules-of-thumb without a shred of understanding of the basic principles involved.&nbsp; You add nothing to the discussion.&nbsp; You&#039;re just a distraction.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not &quot;arguing in circles&quot;, I simply pointed you to a resource which shows that dollar cost averaging doesn&#039;t actually produce a better outcome.&nbsp; Indeed value investing is all about investing a significant amount at the bottom (not exactly at the bottom, necessarily, but well below par), and then anticipating the value to be discovered at some point by the mainstream.&nbsp; This is what value investors do.&nbsp; If you&#039;re not good at identifying cheap opportunities with significant intrinsic value likely to improve their prospects, then perhaps you&#039;re just not a good value investor.&nbsp; Not everyone is.&nbsp; There&#039;s nothing wrong with that.&nbsp; It just means that you have to do more research and read the opinions of those who are good at it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
