Uncle8888 is trying to avoid the repeat of what has happened in 2007 - 2009 where his investment portfolio plunged from 12.2% to 1.6%
It has been super long wait!
A fall from larger stock exposure will take a lots just to get back to the previous peak.
How about a larger war chest instead of larger stock exposure?
How will the investment portfolio perform?
Will the future ME the Investor thank me?
Very prudent Uncle! 60:40 in Cash:Stocks
ReplyDeleteFor me, I'm hoping for another -60% or -70% crash in stocks markets. But probably will see another bull in emerging markets/Asia before that happens. My advice to those not nimble or willing to cut loss --- stay out, don't participate in the irrational bull.
The longer the Bull holds; the next crash may be more than the last crash.
DeleteAsia has seriously underperformed US for last 2-3 years.
DeleteHoping for an Asian bubble before the next crash haha!! Greedy!!
