Bigworld, Well, I used today's market bounce to lower the stock allocation (again). This is getting ridiculous, but I just can't get used to the daily drama of tariffs, etc. The key CPI number is on Wed, and it sounds like Trump could be piling on new tariffs almost every day. Then more tariff angst coming in early March, and then by mid-March comes another debt ceiling soap opera. In Trump's first term the US govt shut down for over a month, and we could see a repeat of that again next month.
Anyway, just too much going on for my frazzled nerves, so I reduced the stock allocation from 16% down to 6%. So just a token exposure to stocks right now. I also reduced the max allowable in stocks to 15% (down from 30% --> 25% --> 20% --> 15%).
I may be getting wimpy in my old age, but I absolutely hate losing money, and with cash / T-Bills paying over 4%, that seems like an attractive alternative to lost sleep and ulcers. I've had some decent stock profits so far this year, so might as well --> 'book them profits'.
