    1. So, take a punt, which of those dozen or so would you put your money on the nose? There's a dozen or so to choose from - which one will outperform over the next year, 2 years, 5 years?

      Also, most funds are unable to go to cash entirely either because of their own rules or that there is not the liquidity in the market to do so.

      For those not confident to make their own trading decisions, I would agree with the poster above who recommended ETF's over managed funds. Greater transparency on the well known ETF;s, easy to buy and sell, a ready market, and, unlike a managed fund, you're not copping other investors' CGT when they sell out. Of course you would need some trading skills.
      Not so, as a number of posters here attest. Selecting swing points is more difficult and more "guesswork" the shorter the time frame you use, but identifying turning points on weekly or monthly charts isn't difficult.
