Here is a good site with a free dollar cost averaging calculator that lets you project how much you will have invested and how much your investments will be worth any number of years and months in the future: http://investonlineinfo.com/calculators/dollar-cost-averaging-calculator/ When you use dollar cost averaging directly with mutual fund companies for no load funds, there should be no transactions costs and it pays off particularly well when you buy into the market at the low points … as long as you cash out when the market is down.

What I do find interesting, though, is how some economists have been saying not so much that stocks are "on sale", but rather that they are selling more for what they should have been selling for all along. Now, I take that to mean this: If you were willing to pay that much for an overpriced share, why not pay the legitmate price and feel even better about it.

Although we can't time the market perfectly, but we can evaluate the business and the industry easily. Mr Market is just a valuer of your current stocks price based on the emotion of the streets, but the real profit from these companies are coming from their business. :) Ren Hi,
