Let's say we're expecting a market correction in the next few years. What do you do?

You should start with a balanced portfolio where you hold some low-risk Bond ETFs along with some Equity ETFs and Gold. In the case of Equity Market corrections you can change % allocation to more in eq by redeeming some Bond ETFs. As an example, at kristal.AI we manage this via certain Kristals like All weather Unlevered/Balanced or even Steady Growth etc by proactively rebalancing as our Investment Committee takes the consensus view to rotate the asset allocation. So you can either allocate dynamically yourself or rely on kristal.AI to do so. Do note investments via us are free for up to 50K USD.

Hi Anon,

B, C, D suggest a lack of investment experience. It is hoping to time the market.

More often, big mistakes are made as shown in the image below

Experienced investors hold cash or low-risk assets when they can't find opportunities to get invested into. The rest stays invested with no expectation of when is a market crash. Not rush in and out at opportune times.

E) "Great Stock Sale" sounds nice until you are actually in it. In that period post-2008, the news was always pessimistic and economies were still fragile. If you imagine a "green light" in a market crash to invest, then beware, it does it not exist.

Hence, A) is by far your best option.

The reason is that it is easy to come up with a plan now to regularly get invested than during an actual market crash.

I've got this post that helps you understand market crashes and strategies to prepare for it better. Hope it helps https://www.theastuteparent.com/2019/09/prepare...

F. Just continue selling puts as usual but reduced exposure and amount at risk. If things get caught out, well I've got a discount on a great stock. Where then I can decide to hold it and wait for recovery or do some magic with it and earn along the way

Will do A, continue DCA-ing into ETF via Stashaway. Parked my spare cash with CIMB's FD for 12 months to earn 1.84% interest p.a.
