I have time to ease in. It's battling my innate tendency to view filling the account as a "task." Have this whole perspective on those that boils down to wanting to check it off the list as complete.
Have 12 companies I could make a 2nd buy of today as they're all trading below my target price. But with futures pointing up I'm going to wait. Another pump-fake/mid-day reversal could be in the cards. Still a lot of uncertainty out there. Though I overplay this mentally. Cheaper is always better but in 13 years a 2% difference in the buy price won't mean much if I'm getting the right company.
At least HD is off the list, for the IRA, not the taxable account. The company's DGI thesis was confirmed yesterday, the growth thesis tossed out, at least for a while. Waiting on LOW to report before I decide if I want more than the starter buy.
