Not exact matches
If When there's a market correction, we'll likely
rebalance a bit back into equities, but as a conservative investor I'm comfortable with our overall
Asset Allocation at this stage, especially given the
current CAPE Ratio of 29.5 (then again, I suffer from The One More Year Syndrome).
In simple terms bringing the
asset allocation back to initial state or desired state from
current state is called
rebalancing.
For someone like myself who has different investment accounts and different types of investments it's a bit of work to figure out what the
current asset allocation is and then
rebalance it all.
Portfolio
rebalancing brings a portfolio's
current asset allocation back to the original mix so that investments can be realigned to initial investment goals to maintain an appropriate risk level.
The timing of portfolio
rebalancing can be based on either a calendar date or a set target about the changing weights of the
current asset allocation from those of the original mix (for example, if an
asset class differs by more than 5 % of the original
allocation).
For example, if there is a rally in Technology stocks the previous quarter, and the
current month is a
rebalancing month, then the percentage you're holding in the tech
asset class will be more than recommended in the portfolio model
allocation weighting.
