1% unit trusts
7% CPF 10% properties 15% cash 23% stocks 44% bonds 15% cash because I doubted the bull run. Read too much about Fed and disbelieved China,USA, EU and even SEA... I still believe that fundamentals are lacking. So, if in doubt, leave it in the bank. Inflation? alamak... its over a period of years...nothing to to be too concerned. There will be spikes. Being ready is far more important.. that 1 time opportunity is enough to recoup all that was eaten away by inflation.

50%.
The drag from cash is painful but as long as your vested portion is working hard to compensate for it, that is fine. Of course, that is a big IF. At the end of the day, one should own stocks/companies which he/she has conviction (aka holding power). To blindly follow the idea that you should be (almost) fully invested at all times may be foolish since the option to not be vested is a powerful one and is what gives small investors an advantage over institutional funds who has to play the game even when the odds are not stacked in their favour. --- http://value.i3-institute.com http://i3-institute.blogspot.sg/index.html http://facebook.com/i.invest.institute
About 10% for me, which is my tikam fund aka short term trading fund.

I try to make myself lean against the wind by holding a percentage of cash in my portfolio that is inversely related to the P/E of my overall stock portfolio i.e. 0% if my overall stock portfolio P/E is below 5 and 20% cash if my overall stock portfolio P/E is above 8 and some fraction in between. Currently this works out to be 10% cash.
P.S.: Still fine tuning the P/E trigger points and percentages though so it is a work in progress that I hope will gradually improve over market cycles.

life goes in cycles, predictable yet uncontrollable; just like the markets, but markets give you a second chance
