That's a winning strategy!
The investing game - regardless of what you choose to invest in - is mostly all mental. Those that bought houses when nobody wanted them - have made a killing now. Those that buy the market when it looks terrible... make the biggest gains. It's the exact opposite of buy high and sell low. Most people only invest in something when it's all sunny and roses. Then they panic and sell when it drops. Those people NEVER win.
