In my case, capital preservation is a key objective and I attempt to find low risk investments that have the potential for superior returns. My strategy would not be appropriate for someone whose top priority is aggressive growth.

UF,
i think i may be the most conservative of the retirees here. for low-risk, remember i keep the next 10 years of retirement funds in fixed instruments. that is my protection against having to sell stocks in bad market years for living expenses.

the remainder is well divided between gorillas and potential gorillas. i will occasionally overweight a stock that appears poised to run, then trim back to a core position as it slows down. lately that technique has provided capital for new investments.

I totally understand UF and we are all in different circumstances.

I was merely pontificating about whether the dynamics of the GG as espoused by the authors has changed.
