Early Retirement & Financial Independence Community - View Single Post - Stock Market -- What stage of the business cycle and what is in demand?

It seems that small cap, mid cap, international stocks had a great ride the last few years. Do you think we are at the stage of the business cycle where Large Caps will dominate for a couple of years?

It appears that the DOW exceeded it high and the S&P 500 is knocking on the door.

I am a little heavy in large caps and have been wanting to allocate/move more money into other caps and international.

I do not try to time the market (especially in the short term)... However, I am not above making allocation decisions and trying to stay in sync with the markets rhythms.

What do you think?
