This may very well be stating the obvious....

7. My "circuit breaker" got triggered today. With S&P 500 closing down 25% from all-time high.

My instructions to myself that I made a 2 or 3 years ago was to sell my fixed income stuff (mostly bond funds) and buy equities when the 25% down point is hit. It's been hit. Today.

I used to be nearly 100% equities as far as my equities - fixed income mix. Ever since about 2000. Then in April 2019 and in August 2019 after some really dotish and frightening actions by the Dotard-In-Chief, I decided that I should move toward the asset allocation that the "experts" recommend for someone at my age in station and life -- something like 60 equity - 40 fixed income.

The main reason for doing that was to have something to buy equities with when they got cheap. The time has come for me to put up or shut up.

Anyone know what a good choice for a broad equity group is historically for times like these -- a recovery from a big plunge? I mean things like small cap value. Or large cap growth. Or whatever. I am not at all interested in individual stocks.
