Personally, I'm still developing my strategy, but one thing I have cemented my thinking on, is that even if shares are good long term no matter what, I always consider them as a short term buy, because that way I can make hay on other short term stocks to get more money for long term ones, and also so I can best time my entry into long term ones to get the best results.
