Maybe.

The problem I’ve found is that you just can’t “time the market”

Ideally you’d want to be the smart trader and get out at the peaks then back in at the lows - but there’s no real signs for when that’s going to happen (I’ve tried).

Go long on stocks, sure - but as a financial strategy taking profits at the highs and putting into bonds or guaranteed interest can be the way to go for less riskier plays - especially for short terms.

Won’t bonds get crushed by rising rates?
