Basic portfolio that beats the index, once a year reconfiguration
All, As gratitude to many wonderful investors here who have been extremely helpful, I am sharing this basic portfolio that does beat S&P in the long run, and yet it is easy to maintain. Reconfiguration is required only once a year - once you get ready to meet a New Year, sell extra and buy what ...

Re: Tactical Asset Allocation + HBPP an intriguing combo
If tactical models go risk-on with a v-shaped recovery in stonks, I'm going to repeat what I did in 2019... express the risk preference by buying exactly what the Fed said they're going to buy... high yield bonds , iShares HYG, and gradually trade in the HYG for equities if the "V" sticks...

Re: Graphs and thoughts from HappyMan
I get a feeling some people could use a batch of positive statistics. Here it is. Yesterday was a Monday, and the S&P-500 index fell 7,6% in one day. In the table below, there recorded all the previous instances for the last 70 years, when the index dropped more than 5% on a Monday. Nine instanc...

Re: Graphs and thoughts from HappyMan
Here is an interesting piece of statistics in the light of yesterday's drop. In the last ten years, there have been 242 days, when S&P dropped 1% or more. In the table, all the cases are spread over the days of a week. The spread is quite even, as one can see. The drawdowns are also somewhat eve...
