    I'm mostly a proponent of indexing and leaving a portfolio alone, but I think the balloon is about to pop.

    And so we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

    We all hear how the bubble will burst. Going to do anything? I sold half my VUSA etf for VHYL still might catch a cold but a much less USA at 40% and naff all techie bits.

    I'll keep my portfolio on here the same for academic purposes, but in real life I've upped my cash allocation to around 20% and moved some US Equity index into a Global ex US equity index. I don't hold much in bonds, but I've also swapped some US bonds for Developed World ex US bonds. My nieces have children who are getting ready for university and so I'm giving them enough to pay the fees which I feel is a good reason to cash in some funds at what might be the peak of the market…and if it isn't, at least the money has been well spent.
