During 6 out of the last 10 recessions, the market actually went up.

Dont get your panties in a twist, people.

My 401(k) is down about 8%.

My non-qualified portfolio is up about 4% since then.

Thata boy.

Ive had a good amount in GLD for the past year or so and moved some money into FXF around July. Aside from that I moved a good amount into TXRAX. I plan on keeping the majority of my non-qualified like this until the Dow hits 12k, at which point Ill move back into primarily equity.

Thanks, your plan sounds good - however I couldn't resist and bought up a bunch of Intel yesterday, just a hunch.

I dont blame you. Thats a sweet deal.

It may trade flat for a while though, but in the long run youll probably end up a happy man.

Im saving all of my available cash (and the proceed from a good amount of the aforementioned sales) for when Visa IPOs in a few weeks.

Do you think they will delay due to conditions? If not, I'll hop in too...thanks.

mostly tech stocks

I dont rust tech stocks. they are mainly price competitive businesses and require a lot of money for research for better products.
I prefer stocks that have a name and have been around for a while and can make it through tough times w/o out losing too much value.
