Gingersreisse,

For the pure GG Gamer, risk calibration could take the following form:

1) Hold X% of Total assets in G&K companies
2) Hold Y% of Total assets in T-Bills
3 X+Y= 100%

In periods the market is strongly expected to go up: X=100. In periods the market is strongly expected to go down: Y=100. By altering the proportions of X & Y you can calibrate the risk you want to take at any point in time.

RATIONALE
- T-Bills represent your risk-free asset component. Long term Government Bonds don´t qualify as they contain interest term risk.
- It is a more efficient strategy, because GG Gamer can use his time more wisely investigating fundamentals of G&K companies rather than investigating other sets of financial information.

Note: Tax considerations will augment complexity of strategy since it will introduce rigidities on the desirable X/Y mix you may want to have at any point in time.

All of the above IMHO

Take care

JAPG
