Abstract
The phrase “one should not try to time the market” is some of the most valuable pieces of advice any new investor can hear, and while it is not desired to challenge that notion it is believed that portfolio rebalancing should be done when one sees danger on the horizon. In this paper, two main topics are discussed: Firstly, it is demonstrated through current data that the notion of 80/20 or 70/30 etc portfolio with the smaller portion being in bonds does carry risk to loss of principal in the bonds. Thus, an alternate investment instrument is proposed that yields the safety of a bond coupon, but also has potential for growth over time. Then, a mathematical model is presented to automate this method by the use of a statistical learning technique. The abstract theory of this method is presented in full detail, including a logical sketch of the algorithm utilized, but the exact algorithm is not presented as it is considered proprietary.
