43. The 2020 Real-Time Plan
● Step 1: Weight positions based on macroeconomic approach
– Sectors should hold approximately 6 companies
● Step 2: Sell off the weakest companies on a valuation basis in order
to reach this requirement
● Step 3: Divide the remaining cash into remaining holdings
proportionally over the course of about 4 years
44. Quasi Dollar-Cost Averaging
We propose to increase our equity exposure by 15% per year until we
reach a more desireable structure with less cash exposure.
In a no-growth portfolio, this process would take about four years to
complete.
