Time In the Market, Not Timing the Market

Monterey Wealth Season 2 Episode 9

What if we were to tell you that if you invested $10,000 in the S&P 500 on 12/31/2006 and left it alone for 15 years, you would have $45,682 on 12/31/2021? That's a 10.66% annualized total return.!

What if you tried to time the market and missed: 

  • Best 10 days in the market? $20,929 (5.05% annualized total return)
  • Best 20 days in the market? $12,671 (1.59% annualized total return)
  • Best 30 days in the market? $8,365 (-1.18% annualized total return)

It's nearly impossible to "time the market".
