(Re)Balancing Act

Why do just one tricky thing at a time?

For the last few months, I haven’t touched my retirement accounts in light of the market’s erratic behavior. However, this weekend I finally sat down to rebalance my accounts. Because of all the fluctuations, my asset allocation was way off. Now, it’s still not where it needs to be but it’s not as skewed as before. Next step, figuring out what to do with the cash in my IRA.

Have you rebalanced your account(s) lately? If not, why not?

*Note, here are a few asset allocation calculators that I like -
CNN/Money calculator
 Forbes calculator
MSN Money calculator
