...what you own - now! If you went into the downturn with 60% stocks and 40% bonds and have done nothing, your mix is now about 50-50. You have cut your exposure to stocks just as they have become more likely to rise. How important is it to get back to 60-40 (or any other target mix that has been skewed by volatile markets)? A starting balance of $100,000 that was 60% stocks and 40% bonds in 1970 and was never rebalanced would have grown to $2.9 million by 2008. That same portfolio rebalanced annually would have grown...

Woody Allen still makes movies, Rush Limbaugh remains on the air, Don Imus is back on TV, and Michael Jackson inspired greater mourning than most world leaders would...
