My portfolio ratio was 36 when I retired 2 months ago. I've been giving a lot of thought lately as to the ratio and how that number should weigh in establishing one's AA. It seems to me that the higher the ratio the less volatile of a portfolio one should have. I don't want to call this market timing, but it seems to me that more equities should be converted to cash, etc as the ratio climbs. I think going forward I'll adjust my AA using my age and ratio as guidelines.
