In my opinion, it is all a matter of market timing. It does not matter if it is gold, oil, or Microsoft, if you have access to good market timing signals, they will help you get in and out at a profit. No guarantees in this business, but if they are right most of the time, you can still make $s. There are may web sites providing them out there (search Google). Just find one that works and use it! Check out http://invetrics.com/dontfollow as an example. Its Dow Jones timing signals are up 44.7% as of 6/24/09 while the Dow is up just 26% off its March lows.

One question I have though is should a 25 year old really have 25% in bonds. Wouldn't even an index fund historically be better than that? I mean, I'm all for diversifying, but to me it seems like you ought to have some gray hair before allocating money to that safe of an investment. Good article.
