Q: Hello 5i,
New to portfolio analytics, can’t say enough about this team! Bravo.

Circumstances forced me to shuffle financially this past year.
43, pension, rentals. 55 freedom or forget it.

Highest conviction, growth, maj; tech, leaning themes to the next decade, a sprinkle of sector diversity, large/mid/small caps, predominantly US. I’m aware of course of all the caveats here lol. A 12-15 starter pack would be fabulous.

This is you starting today; You have 300k.
I do add 700 per week, please exclude
BN, TRI, ISRG, COST, HIMS, NBIS, NVDA, BKSY.

Eagerly waiting! Thank you.

Q: When people compare investing a lump sum to dollar cost averaging to market timing they usually trot out long term averages showing lump sum is better. Doesn’t context matter? Valuations are currently elevated. If they ran the comparisons after eliminating the years when valuations were at or below some long term average would the answer change?

How would you approach this question in today’s market context.

Appreciate you get a version of this question regularly but I’d like your answer for today. Thanks!
