VP based on "Timing" the 4 asset classes. REDUX....or best asset going forward

Post by murphy_p_t »

So, looking back to the lows of 2009, it you put everything into VTI and didn't look at any markets since then, you'd be in a great position now.

Is there an asset class likely to repeat that performance from 2014 to 2020?

Consider charts at http://kingworldnews.com/kingworldnews/ ... harts.html

What are the odds that GLD has similar performance (from 2014 to 2019) to VTI since 2009?

Hey Murphy,

No takers so far so I'll give this a shot. If I were to rate the four assets of the PP for their potential to do well over the next few years, I would pick gold, then stocks, then cash. LTTs I expect to lose money. That being said, I hold them all in equal weight because my track record at timing is bad.
