Q: I know market timing is a mugs game but would welcome your thoughts on the risk of a market top. What signs do you look for in determining when to reduce exposure? Is there an optimal cash level to provide some insurance? what inning are we in?
Q: Sometimes when markets feel a little "frothy" I wonder what is behind the movement. I think one causal factor would be that certain investment managers, such as for larger pension funds, have cash flowing from contributions weekly (or at some regular interval) and they MUST keep cash balances within the range of their investment portfolio objectives so they need to buy SOMETHING!
If this in any way accurate? How much does it move the needle? What other strategies can these managers use to reduce volatility? (Maybe this comes full circle to Dollar Cost Averaging and that much of the time the market is at a new all-time high.)
Thanks!!
