Investment Q&A

Q: What is your preferred strategy, if you believe there will be a 20% + correction in the next 3 months?
1. just ride it out, knowing it will come back over time
2. sell 30 - 50% of the portfolio (riskiest stocks) and raise cash to re-deploy when prices are lower
3. sell 30 - 50% and replace with less market correlated assets
4. sell 20 - 30% and hedge with puts or inverse ETF's.
