Today marks the fifth anniversary of my blog. I started it in February 2009, when the market was at its obscene low point as a tool for measuring my own progress and giving myself a place to refer back to the past market trends and my thoughts on them at the time.
Almost no one would have said that my fifth anniversary post would note that the market was almost at its all-time high, having just broken across 14,000 this week (although it closed the week just under that benchmark).
While the majority of my investments are in stocks, it will be interesting to see (going forward) which types of stocks are leading and lagging.
If anything, this year has been extra normal. As such, I decided* to forgo my re-balance this quarter.
