Re: Is Today the Day?
And how about today ? They are up 20 % YTD. That's is scary. And nowhere near a rebalance. I'm very confidence in the PP concept.

Re: The PIMCO 25+ Year Zero Coupon U.S. Treasury Index Exchange-Traded Fund
I use them (about 25 % of the LT part) in addition to the EURO bonds EFT as the € bonds have only a duration of 22 years. The ZROZ now has a duration of 27.3 years and therefore less volatile than the 30 years bond. ZROZ distribute 4 time a year dividend. This year 19% up :P. That is nice but also ...

Re: Variable portfolio based on "Timing" the 4 asset classes.
Well, a milestone ;D All assetsclasses are above their 200 days average. Isn't that weird. HB always assumed there was always one assetclass down the drain. Gold in 2013. However I just follow the strategy and I'm now fully invested in: Gold, LT Bonds, Equities, REIT, Commodities. Performance: YTD:...
