There are many ways to trade and invest in the stock market. In my experience, buying and holding can take advantage of a big move, but it has a number of disadvantages over a nimble approach. To compound and avoid large drawdowns, big consistent returns require turnover.

Oil, copper and other commodities came under heavy selling pressure today and that's a good thing because it's mounting evidence that inflation may be peaking.
Positive signs on inflation include fertilizer prices peaking and trending downward. Used Car prices are also down (which led inflation). The recent price break on the $XLE - which emerged almost to the day the market topped, could be an indication that we are close to a low. pic.twitter.com/2MtcKjjmAz

Compounding is amazing. Just 3 months into the year I'm having one of my best returns. That's because instead of arguing with the market, I made an adjustment and took what it was offering, and that allowed for rapid turnover that can add up pretty fast if you are concentrated.
Short term trading is what has worked best in this market. Until I see an alternative working better, I'm going to stick what is working like a charm.
