What are your portfolio allocation percentages?

10% at least in cash, wow okay.  

Now is a really good time for me to start building my cash up from here on out.  I reached my goal of $500/month in dividends to draw on from the taxable account, and I've got the automated transfer all set up, so my budget is a-okay.  I was planning to build my cash up anyway through March of next year because I liquidated nearly $50k of company stock and I need to be ready for the tax consequences.  Plus, I've been reading all these stories about the market being overvalued and due for a massive correction, which makes me nervous to say the least.

I remember that massive 3 day drop a few months back.  The point isn't that it only took my portfolio about 3 weeks to recover, the point is that by day 3, everything was on sale.
