Following the GTAA-4 system. At the beginning of the month the top 4 asset classes in relative and absolute momentum were foreign developed large cap, FD small cap, US small cap and (believe it or not) emerging markets.

Beginning of the month I pushed 1/2 an allocation into those 4 equity classes in case it was yet another bull trap/bear rally.

As the MAs held at 1/16 recheck, I pushed the rest of my equity allocation into those 4 classes - a slight overweight in the top 2 classes. (Mostly through ETFs, but also 4-5 smaller-caps proposed by Mungo's ROE/RevGr SOS screen, which I've posted about previously).

A good month. Finally.
