How does your local economy feel?

Actually, all the real pros do time the market, and do so consistently. They want to talk everyone else out of it because it makes snapping up the cheap buys much more difficult.

Yes, they are paid to time the market but they don't do it well! Study after study finds that over any reasonable period of time you do better just buying an index fund that trusting active managers who are trying to beat the market.

Having said that, I'm thinking about trying to time this real estate market by buying a rental property. I'm thinking the bottom is in 2009, but I'm sure I will buy either too soon or too late!
