Even before this thing, there were a number of fire blogs that weren't super honest about the realism of their numbers. I can only imagine that there's more who are facing a ride awakening right now.
For someone just following a boglehead index whatever, it should just be business as usual. Treat it as any other crash. That is, do nothing except maybe rebalance stock/bond ratio to match once or twice a year.
- dbsights 7y agoExcept stocks and bonds are correlated now. So that strategy just, doesn't work any more
- dmoy 7y agoThat's fine. They can be correlated, so long as the bond one doesn't move nearly as much. You can accomplish the same thing. "Being correlated" doesn't make it useless.
- twiceaday 7y agoExcept correlation is irrelevant to the strategy when one asset is an order of magnitude more volatile than the other.
