Business Cycle approach for the DG Investor - Scooterd - 12-15-2021
I augment my DGI portfolio following Business Cycle methodologies. This semi-passive approach has worked very very well for me for decades (I have been employing this methodology before Fidelity even stuck a label on it).
I utilize this strategy when deploying new capital whether to invest in a new company or increase share count in an existing, Under-weighting and over-weighting individual DG investments within my portfolio during specific phases of a full business cycle. (semi passive because "historically" a full business cycle take approx 7+ years to fully complete. This allows me to only tweak my investment holdings very rarely as the market reacts when the business economic cycle enters a new phase.
