What exactly am I missing on my thought process, if anything.
In a hypothetical situation, if you have a sum of money and it's lying around, and at the same time you have researched companies you want to invest in, what's to say you shouldn't invest all of it (If you want to accept the risk behind you're portfolio's diversity)?
Some might say, you should have a percentage in cash so you have the ability to buy more if the markets fall, but to me that sounds foolish because if you are prepared and knowledgeable about your investment, it makes no sense to wait because at that point, you're just timing the market or trying to at least.
Something someone could say is; You want to hold onto some cash in case of a better investment opproutnity, and I can understand that and agree there, but I don't see any other reason that would suffice in stating that it would be silly to invest the entire sum, GIVEN the fact that - you are well prepared and knowledgeable about your investment and liquidity isn't an issue/these funds aren't needed elsewhere.
Is there something I'm missing?
