If you have analysis paralysis, choose the optimal strategy (lump sum), but if you can't handle the stress, go with DCA. Both will give you fantastic long-term…
Lump sum investing statistically beats dollar cost averaging because it gets your money working in the market sooner. Since stocks and bonds rise over the long term, you can prove this yourself by opening your stock app and checking the longest time horizon—the market only goes one direction: up.
