if you understand nothing more about the stock market, please at least pay attention to the following chart:

The odds overwhelmingly favor buyers into the stock market over the longer-term (the odds of positive returns are 67%, 88%, 93%, and 100% over 1, 3, 5, and 10-year periods, respectively) – while the opposite is true of sellers (the odds of negative returns are 33%, 12%, 7%, and 0% over 1, 3, 5, and 10-year periods, respectively) – source: https://www.capitalgroup.com/individual/planning/investing-fundamentals/time-not-timing-is-what-matters.html#:~:text=Riding%20it%20out,Source:%20S&P%20500%20Index. So, buyers don’t have to be very precise to capitalize in terms of market timing while sellers have to be very precise.

I hope this will be helpful to some of you out there.
