Have to agree here. You hear people say "buy low, sell high" all the time, but they never seem to do this with the stock market. They sell low because the ultra-short-term trend is downward, and then buy high "because the stock market looks solid now". Then they lose a ton of money and wonder why.

I dump a few thousand dollars into a total stock market index fund every few months. Monday was a non-event for me. I didn't even look at my positions. The stock market is for long-term goals, not intraday interaction.
