Be like me and sit on it for a entire year because SURELY the market is overinflated and due for a massive correction but instead it just keeps hitting record after record all year long

Do it in one go, a single time. The theory there is time in market is better than timing the market
Lump. Never try to time the market.
DCA.
It depends on the type of person you are. Do what will allow you to sleep at night. If you’re a newer investor, then DCA. If you’re like me, I just want to check it off my list and lump sum.
If you think the market might correct, but you don’t want to time the market: DCA
If you have no idea or don’t believe the market will correct any time soon: lump sum
If you think the market might correct and you want to time the market: good luck
There's a ton of research you can look at on this and determine what's best for you

How long term are you thinking?
