Do you have your retirement in the Government's Thrift Savings Plan (TSP)? If so, here's a method to move your funds in and out, subject to the 2x per month criteria, so that you don't get slammed the next time the market decides to go south. I use a system that I've developed to time this system to prevent major drawdowns while having fairly good yearly returns. I manage my wife's TSP fund with this technique, so it's for real.

Whipsaw -- Models move to Cash effective 4/15/13 close
.
I'm on travel so I will be brief.
With the close of markets on Monday, 4/15/13, my GGT/TSP model has reversed and is indicating a move to cash. This means a transition to the G-Fund.
If you are aggressive, a 16% allocation in the F-Fund, which is a bond fund, could be prudent.
If you are conservative, 100% allocated in the G-Fund would be the safest.
I am putting 16% in the F-Fund and 84% into the G-Fund, effective with the close of markets today (transfer made before noon EDT).
Remember, you are responsible for your own decisions, and I am not. Please do your diligence, and please take ownership for your actions.
Regards,
