If you haven't yet entered the market, you can either try now, as the recent market correction means you can find some stocks at a bargain, or if your thesis about an upcoming crash is correct, wait for the crash. A big part of this is psychological, though. I have a co-worker who correctly predicted the March crash and sold his shares in February, however, he gold cold feet and didn't jump back in afterwords, missing incredible opportunities. People don't know when the market has reached its low point, and so they hesitate. If you want to time the market, remember that imperfect timing is better than not trying at all, especially if you can hold your funds in their for years. However, and overall, it's generally accepted that over the long-term "Time in the market beats timing the market". If you're interested in investing, do some research and give it a go.
