bro - what U see MORE in forums are usually the "fast twitch" ones.
most of us "slow twitch" ones do not REACT to these "stuff", we RESPOND to value changes or % deviation from our planned portfolio.
As can be seen from the prior responses to your post - these fellow forumers are responding to your example Q (last sentence), instead of the bigger picture.
Same post (from U), Different focus (from us), Different reaction/response (from us)

It's a good thing - else all become lemmings / sheeples, right?

In reference to US exposure:
I used TA GTF as my proxy to US equity exposure.
I entered in Qtr 2 of Yr 2016 and started to skim profit from it starting in Nov 2016 until now.
Why do I start to skim profit way starting back in four months ago?
Because Algozen ver 3.0 says so! The fact of the matter is, its risk to reward ratio was beginning to drop and the similar parameter, that is, risk to reward for Asia-Pac ex Japan region was beginning to improve. Hence, Algozen told me to shift more towards Asia-Pac ex-Japan in lieu of US. That is why since Nov 2016, I have been skimming the profit made from US exposure and placing them into Asia Pac ex-Japan.
Is Algozen able to predict the future? I don't know. Is it a coincidence that it knows that US will be volatile? I don't know.... but for version three = so far so good lar!
This is why veterans do not over react to these small little noises here and there. We have already an custom in-built filter to these noises.
Less Noise; More Zen!

p/s I bet for the next few days some noobs unheard before will post question like, I have US UTF, should I sell?
