Gyroscopic Investing

Some bank investment guy tried to pitch this fund to me a few years ago.

I wasn't impressed with his operation for a number of reasons, but I've looked into the fund, it's basically just a growth stock ETF.

One thing I sometimes wonder about is, if the point of holding stock is to cash in during times of prosperity, wouldn't it make sense to hold funds that really cash in when things are going good?

What are the pros and cons of going all NASDAQ with your stock portion? Has anyone tried it or researched it?

You could play with this idea at Tyler's www.portfoliocharts.com
Just go to the calculator section and put in whatever asset allocation you would like to backtest.

It looks like a bunch of his posts were deleted. Not sure why.
