OK - on one level it sounds pretty simple - if I'm trying to time the market by doing research on a daily basis and making changes based on that, that's short term. If I'm looking out to retirement in 20 years and socking money away without many changes, that's gotta be long term.
Where I have a question is what is considered looking out a few months? Basically I won't be able to perform transfers on a daily or weekly basis because of travel - I'd much rather deal with things out 1-3 months or so. Is that considered short term? And what indicators/factors go into that type of investments (big question, I know!)?
