Are you holding back on investing ?

[Limpopobongo]

I'm just wondering what other peoples thoughts are. I'd like to shove some more coal on the fire but i really do feel that just about everything is screaming way to high and that the only thing most likely to happen soon is a substantial dip. Who knows what will trigger it but it must be coming soon. Essentially, i dont want to buy in on a high.

I know some will say,,well you could miss out on a years worth of growth etc etc but whats the point of making 4 or 5% growth if there is a 10 or 15% drop?

Because captured falls are rare. I keep shovelling and as long as it's long term it makes no difference.

I have one client who can't get in the markets 'tomorrow' is always better. Looking at long term charts it isn't.

In the immediate markets only certain areas of the global market are overheated.

Which bits do you consider over heated? I'd like an index linked gilts fund but that too looks cooked. Did consider just drip feeding this years ISA into a VLS80 and forget it.

I'd do the later. Gilts are a waste of time long term. They have a place but not as big a one as they are often given.
