how’s that buy-and-hold strategy working out for ya’???[/quote]

I actually lightened my position in stocks over the last couple of years in the hopes of buying either RE or stocks in the next bear market.

I am assuming that we are currently in a bear market and a long period where stocks will underperform, so I am playing the cyclical 3-5 year moves.

So, it’s really not a pure buy-and-hold. But either way, right now it really really sucks, because I have about 50% in stocks.

Thanks for asking.

I am willing to entertain alternatives and hedges. What’s your favorite place for your investments currently ?
