Buffett is never more right than when he reiterates positions I've put forth on TNCR. :hat:

Yeah, but you still have a problem with market timing.

For instance, a guy retiring in the 90's has probably done much better with his $500k portfolio than a guy that retired a half dozen years ago, with the same nut.

I don't think Buffett's game plan is about market timing. He obviously uses trends to decide allocation -- as he noted -- but if he's trading on fundamentals, then its not about timing.

Hard to argue with a massively successful game plan.
