[quote=Anonymous]you should find an asset allocation you are comfortable with (or use the lifecycle fund if you are not comfortable with picking one) and then stick with it. it is very easy for someone to have better returns over any given time period. stocks have been doing well so someone who is heavy in stocks will do better now. when stocks drop (which they almostly certainly will sometime in the next 10-15 years) people who are heavy in stocks will have big losses. it is very dangerous to "market time"-- i.e. try to guess when stocks will do better than bonds, or int'l better than domestic, etc. The average investor ends up taking a large hit on their retirement savings because they buy high and sell low trying to follow performance instead of sticking with a plan.[/quote]
