Just to share a bit of wisdom without reading the article (because I usually find them useless): Regardless of what Goldman or others may say, I was privy to a cycle phenomenon in the S&P 500 index (SPX) which has correctly called the direction of the index since the 70s (as far as I can verify).

To put it simply, according to the cyles, SPX will begin a new phase (turn) in April, 2015. This means the index will continue in its current direction (up) until 4/2015, meaning every dip is a buying opportunity. Those who leave stocks all together now may miss out on some serious stock gains.

Thanks for the tip. I've learned I'm not smart enough to time the market.

Right now, my mix is 45% stocks (mostly S&P 500 index), 45% bonds, and 10% cash. I haven't varied the mix much in the past few years. I might lessen the stock amounts when Ben lands his helicopter.

My employer has a generous 401k match, so I can stay conservative.
