Earlier this year, I switched my strategy to more of a dca to take the stress out of timing the market, and make my investing a bit more automated, as life was getting busier and I had less time to devote to stocks. But recently, I have been depositing my money and not purchasing, partially because I expect more short term pain and I'm tired of lighting money on fire, but also partially market fatigue.

It just feels like we spend too much time debating macro factors, inflation, consumer pressures, supply chain inefficiencies, etc, and it seems like execution of the individual company is irrelevant. For example, I thought $LULU knocked their earnings out of the park, and they were up post earnings, but gave back most of it because the overall market was red. It's discouraging and exhausting to actively invest when it feels like individual performance doesn't matter and I guess I've just been feeling a bit burnt out with my whole process, and I don't know if anyone else is feeling this and how they deal with it.
