No one knows with certainty whether it is a good time to invest, because no one can reliably predict the development of the financial markets. Instead of trying to hit the right moments, it is better in the long term to hold the investments during all market situations. Such an investment strategy pursues findependent. Although it requires stamina in a crisis, it leads to higher returns in the long term. In principle, however, it is worthwhile to start investing as early as possible, because the longer you invest, the lower the risk of loss. Moreover, the longer you invest, the more you benefit from the compound interest effect. However, you should not invest your entire investment sum all at once, but distribute it out over the next 1 to 2 years, for example (1/8 per quarter). In this way, you can avoid having caught a bad moment in retrospect.
