Invest extra now ? Or after Inauguration Day?

Need to shuffle some money from savings account into brokerage account , everything has been on a steady incline lately so keep holding off ... do I just stop trying to time it and get it in there ?

Right now have VIGAX, VTIAX, VTSAX, VWEL

Thanks

You can't time the market and by trying to, you generally just miss out on growth.

You are right I’ve already wasted the last few weeks !

Dollar cost average if you’re worried. It probably will make zero difference in the long term but in the short term, you take the guesswork out of it.

Take the amount you want to invest, divide it by (say) four and then invest an equal amount every week (or EOW or whatever timeline makes the most sense.)
