I like the theory of Dollar Cost Averaging and have used spread out planned purchases to invest large buckets of cash. I've long known that humans are innately wired to invest when markets are hot and sell at bottoms. That instinct might have benefited our neanderthal ancestors in some way, but cavemen didn't deal in stocks.
The most successful investors separate their emotions from their investing with tricks like DCA.
BTW, have you seen how well Buffett's Apple is doing lately?
