Thanks Toofuzzy, Not at all fuzzy, in reality. Your commentary is excellent and you are quite right that one needs to separate what you want to own from when you should buy it.
The sectors I think that are good for the long haul are commodities, energy, and healthcare as those will always have a market. The others I think are a bit more problematic, and can have long down periods, but if bought in a down market can be wise choices as well.
As to exactly which to buy in each sector, or just buy the sector as a whole, that is the first question. Thanks for your suggestions.
As to buying when when a position is down when you buy it, this is the virtue of LD-AIM as I understand it. Instead of 50/50 stock/cash one can do 80/20 (90/10 if you are very brave {or foolhardy?}!) and as it goes up sell as AIM tells you to and put some of the cash into another position, leaving enough behind to take care of future downturns. Depending on what it is, using the V-Wave, you could stop at ~40% or go on up to ~60% for riskier positions like leveraged ETF/ETNs such as MORL or your suggestion of ERX.
