Subject: Timing & GTAA update
Timing Dashboard
+12: All in bullish, for 3 straight weeks. April was hella month, wasn't it?
Comment: I don't trust it given the volatile Middle East situation, but "the market" doesn't care what I think, and it "climbs a wall of worry".
GTAA status
Top 4 ranks by 1-3-6-12 month performance:
1 - IEMG (Emerging) & IJT (small cap growth)
3 - IJR small cap
4 - MTUM
Lower 6 asset classes in descending rank
SCZ
EFA
SPY
BIL (Cash)
VNQ
VNQI
Starting plan for May: (being mechanical)
* Rebuilding #1 allocations to Emerging and Smallcaps (12% each)
* Dropping out of EAFE.
* Adding 11% allocation to small cap growth.
* Completing 8% allocation to momentum funds.
When this is done, the portfolio will be roughly 50-50 equities & fixed income (focused on high yield.)
