[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m surprised at those saying now is the time to “buy low.” My portfolio is well off the lows of last year and substantially up this year. Even if the debt ceiling is resolved (I think it will be) every economist I’ve read thinks stocks are due for a downturn this summer/fall. We’re not liquidating stocks, but as income comes in, we’re hoarding cash/buying bonds. After years of being heavily in equities, we’re slowly going back to a more “normal” allocation. [/quote] The S&P500 is roughly even to what it was 2 years ago (-<1%) and international indices are still at a 2 year negative. Given that the average stock market year is 10%, that's a low. That said, if you're more heavy in stocks than your desired allocation you should shift that with new money.[/quote]
