  • What a Difference a Year Makes! Endowment, Buy and Hold, and Tactical Returns [View article]
    Both a strategic (buy and hold) and tactical (using the timing model) allocation justifies up to a 20% allocation to gold.

    Thanks for the read! And PS, SA only pulls some of my posts, you can find them all on my blog World Beta.

  • Tracking Mean Reversion After Bad Months [View article]
    Thanks Smart ETF - your comments are some of the few that are worthwhile and intelligent.

    I agree with you for the most part, and I examined a similar vol clustering in an old post on World Beta. Shoot me an email when you get the chance.

  • Replicate The Yale Endowment With These ETFs [View article]
    Thanks for all the comments. SA only posts some of my articles here, but there has been enough interest that I will post a monthly update on my blog World Beta (there is one today). For more info on the specifics of the timing model, please reference my paper "A Quantitative Approach to Tactical Asset Allocation."

    I listed more asset classes here because different people use various combinations in their portfolios. In my paper I only used 5. Subsequent research has shown that more asset classes can improved risk adjusted returns - again, buried in the archives on my blog.

  • Lazy ETF Portfolios Inspired By The Gurus [View article]
    Sorry, I am aware of the exact allocation, but to compare apples to apples (some of the time series dont go back to 1972), I had to lump some together. . .
