Does it make sense to DCA into US markets now considering how strong USD is now and how volatile the markets are?

Is it a good time to jump in now?

It depends on your investment objectives and what type of financial instruments you intend to invest into. For the most part, dollar cost averaging may not work all the time.

Besides, it also depends on your capital and how long you intend to stay invested. Moreover, to determine if the market condition is favourable to invest, the question will be: Is there a right time to invest?

Accordingly, I have compiled a list of financial crisis and disasters since the 90s and every other strong reasons not to invest. However, the market has proven otherwise year after year.

Therefore, focus with the right investment strategy by knowing your investment objective.

Does it make sense to DCA into Endowus equity 100% and Syfe Equity100 since both are underlying are mainly US market driven?

DCA which platform to use? I plan to invest 100 USD into total world etf (VWRA- London market) monthly. May I know which platform to use to be cost-effective? or should i DCA into VT- US market ?

If I want to start using Stashaway, does it make sense for me to start now or wait till USD drop or wait till the coming market crash to start?

Hi, wondering if G3B STI still makes any sense to do a DCA. Returns a year is a bout 4% dividends which isnt attractive. Should I sell once the market recovers or is there something I am overlooking?

Given the uncertainty in markets (Geo-pol tensions, Covid19, equities/gold seemingly at high values, us elections) would it make sense to transfer my stashaway portfolio to a lower risk profile.?
