Indeed, it doesn’t even always backtest well. There are several 10 and 15 year periods where negative real growth occurred in stock market indices.

Sure, with a 30-year horizon, everything smooths. But entering a market at the wrong time has severe implications.

That said, it is far more probable that a reluctant investor misses growth opportunities by failing to invest than by investing at the wrong time.
