The astute and knowledge answer is HELL NO! The reasons are many but I will give you two:
1. You can't time the markets..not even Ken Fischer and Warren Buffet DON'T time the markets.
(and)
2.You lose returns in the market when you wait to time it due to being on the side lines/fence (in cash) and not having your money work for you through consistent investing known as dollar cost averaging.
So you would be stupid to wait for a market crash since they don't happen very often and you lose all the potential returns while you wait with your head stuck in the sand!
Stocks became overvalued.
The question of whether buying stocks on margin eventually leads to severe market pullbacks has been the subject of intensive debate. Bull markets are typically associated with rising margin debt as Investors buy stocks on margin to leverage gains through the use of debt. The increased stock buying permitted by margin debt contributes to the strength and longevity of a bull market but this reverses during market pullbacks if investors receive margin calls and are forced to liquidate stocks. Margin buying by itself is not a dangerous practice and there have been prolonged periods during which margin debt remained at high levels and the stock market continued higher. The problem associated with margin debt is that a sudden adverse macro economic event that panics investors into selling causes prices to drop which can put margin buyers into a negative equity position. At this point the forced liquidation of stocks due to margin calls that cannot be met results in a self perpetuating event whereby lower prices force more selling which in turn causes further price declines. It can therefore be argued that margin debt per se does not cause a market selloff but can result in a steeper price decline than would have occurred if margin debt did not need to be liquidated.
The first factor was a series of downturns in the economies of individual nations during the second half of the 1920s. The second factor was an international financial crisis involving the U.S. stock market.
