    I won’t say that this isn’t good advice, but I’ve always thought the subtext of this advice was

    Please keep your money in The Market so we can keep leveraging it.

    Please keep your confidence in The Market.

    PLEASE don’t start a run on our banks and clearing houses.

    Trying to time the market is risky, but ignoring your money isn’t zero-risk either. Nothing grows forever no matter how much Capitalism insists it does.
