Bespoke Speaks

The crew over at Bespoke cranked up the Gee-Golly-Whiz Machine to spit out this table of SPX sector weights going year by year back to 1990.

I posted a less detailed type of thing from them before and some readers saw the utility and some did not but this is huge for how I construct sector weights in the portfolios I manage.

It should be easier to see if you click on it. It is also easier to see by clicking on it in Bespoke's original post.

usually when a sector out performs it out performs for a number of years.

How do you time your over weighting or under weighting of a sector?

Why do you think it is reasonable to time sectors, but not time the market?

I am sick and tired of these 2-3% bear raids lately. My accounts have all fallen hard and just crossed into negative territory for the freaking year.

Do something Roger.

Why am I in this market when a risk free internet bank pays 5.5%????

Damn these markets.

Roger,

do you get more bearish as we cross below the 200 dma for a second time?
