Rebalancing portfolios In January 2018 looks like a smart response to the momentum and concentration of winners in 2017
You don’t have to do anything now–but come January 2018, if 2017 finishes the way I outlined in my last post on this momentum market and end of the year selling/window dressing I think rebalancing a portfolio will be a very smart way to begin 2018. Rebalancing–selling winning positions and adding to losing positions until all the holdings in a portfolio are equally weighted–will automatically take profits in the biggest winners of 2017 and redistribute some of that cash into stocks that have been sold down in 2017 but that look set to rebound in 2018.
