The 2 Most Dangerous Months - SPDR S&P 500 Trust ETF (NYSEARCA:SPY) | Seeking Alpha



This is an excellent article about why August and September are the worst months of the year to be in the stock market.  As Lance Roberts noted, we will soon know whether or not the market new highs were just a false head fake.  Lance also backed up his ideas with several great charts.



I agree with Lance 100% on his 35% allocation to bonds.  Since you never know what stocks will do, you will almost always make a little money on bonds.  In fact, my personal portfolio is around 50% allocated to bonds and preferred stocks.  So, I will be making money even if we have a bad downturn.
