re: Asset Allocation >I believe that Macro asset allocation managers have used the type of stock yield vs. bond yield to adjust the amount of money in equity and equity type investments vs. bonds. John, most asset managers based their asset allocation on the relative market valuation of the portfolio's parts. For example, a 60/40 strategy would be allocating 60 of the portfolio's value into bonds and 40% into stocks. Then the portfolio is adjusted from time to time to keep the percentage constant.
