I have a confession to make …
I have never timed the market perfectly.
Let me share an example.
In 2010, I bought shares of Booking Holdings (NASDAQ: BKNG), Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL).
Buying three stocks is only half the story.
Here’s the kicker: when I scooped up those four shares, the S&P 500 had rallied by 68% from its March 2009 low during the Global Financial Crisis.
In other words, the prices which I got for the three shares were nowhere as cheap as they were during the depths of 2009.
In fact, by the time I bought these shares …
Apple stock had almost tripled from its low.
Amazon stock had doubled.
And Booking Holdings stock had soared by over 150% from its March 2009 low.
