Market Timing Hazards


               
I often discuss the foolishness of attempting to time buying and selling securities. Occasionally, investors can luck out in such efforts. But this success can only be accidental; most timers overwhelmingly fail to get out at the highs they claim, nor back into the market in time for low points.
                       
They get media play, but check independent research and you find the market timers are generally not the success they purport to be. (See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinesNewshole at Twitter.)
