I think it depends on your time frame that you need the money. It’s really hard to time the market. Been trying to do it unsuccessfully for 30 years. Here’s something to think about. 

If you had invested $100,00 in Nov 2007 (at the peak for the Great Recession) the C fund was at about $17 per share. 

It dropped to around $8 in March 2009 about a  50% drop

The C fund is now trading at around $60 per share, about a 250% gain from Nov 2007.

 

So your $100,000 investment would now be worth about $353,000. 

And what if you put that $100,000 in G fund, and moved it to C fund in March 2009?  How much would your $100,000 investment be worth in that situation?

 

I think there's a difference between trying to time the market like a day trader, and keeping an eye on big picture trends to avoid major swings.  I haven't heard a single stock market analyst say that the market is NOT overvalued right now.  There will be a correction, it's just a matter of when.  If you're in G when the correction happens, you'll be glad you missed out on a few months worth of gains.
