Cory, You hear all those people come on CNBC will allocations like: 50% stocks; 40% bonds; 10% cash. I have been in the process of shifting to a normal balanced investing strategy. Stress is the reason! My am just shifting to a conservative allocation but based upon above type of allocation. However, my stock is going to be MSFT and less weighting in other Nasdaq stocks including net stocks. Once I am out of options, plan to buy more net stocks and change to a higher stock allocation--maybe 60%. BTW--Even Abbey Cohen comes out with certain allocations to bonds. It is matter of reducing portfolio risk. I am now at the stage where I am ready for that type of approach. I don't really want big gains, but just want to protect against big losses.
