Nah. Just buy a super low cost index fund, reinvest the dividends and leave it alone other than adding to it. Market timing is a fool’s game.

I believe index funds are the way to go, but one can buy companies that are no brainers and substantially outperform he market. I bought Intel and Microsoft in the 90’s, both no-brainers; in recent years, I bought Starbucks, another no brainer for long-term outperformance.
