You try and time it and pull the money out, then you miss out on potential returns, and if you leave it in then invariably you will get beat up a bit.
I'm going to keep paying down debt, but also just going to keep AP'ing into my funds. I trust my fund manager (milford) to minimize the effect of a downturn (for reference one of their higher risk funds, the trans tasman, did -9.9% in 2009, whilst the index did -24.9%), if it drops, I might even up the AP's or drop a lump sum in.
