I'm with you on the G fund - but be apprised that four years ago the small/mid-caps were roughly 20% under-priced relative to large - caps. Now they are about 10% overpriced. Moreover, in a rising interest rate environment, large-caps tend to do better.
There are opportunities in this market. One thing is to not look at all equities in the same light. There has been a profound difference in the performance of large - cap growth stocks and small - cap value stocks over the last five years. Over the past five years, according to the Morningstar style indexes, large growth stocks have declined 15.5% a year, while small - cap value stocks have risen 18.4%. That's just a phenomenal performance differential.
I don't mean to lecture - just looking for someone to listen. The sp500 must hold 1220 and make a push higher in the next few trading days. If repeated attempts at 1240 are met with continued selling - a correction is on the way.
