Interesting. So if this strategy is so easy and so reliable why do you have such a small portion of your portfolio invested in it? Why have you not long since gone all in/100%, gotten insanely rich, and bought yourself a private tropical island somewhere?... You also miss the main point in the buying after a correction. This does not mean stock picking. It means for someone who have a three fund portfolio of (1) total stock market index, (2) total international stock market index and (3) total bond market index, then that investor can simply exchange $100K in his/her total bond market index fund for $100K total stock market index fund shares in his IRA. After the market has recovered from the 10% correction, he/she transfer the $100K back to the bond fund. The end result: he/she made a profit based on the three fund portfolio he/she already have. As the article suggest, this has ALWAYS worked and this has ALWAYS worked for me. ...
