Video Overview
The video follows a 54-year-old Taiwanese investor changing her portfolio. After 15 years of investing, she primarily held high-dividend ETFs whose roughly NT$50,000 monthly distributions helped her remain calm during volatility. She recently adopted a 40/30/30 allocation: 40% stocks, 30% leveraged funds, and 30% cash. Her initial schedule bought 00670L from January through April, 00662 from May through August, and 00865B or a money-market fund from September through December. The speaker says a monthly schedule is not rebalancing and instead adjusts by annual market direction. In an up year, 30% or 50% of that year's leveraged-fund profit moves to cash or short bonds. In a down year, cash equal to 2% of the original portfolio buys leverage. A NT$1 million two-year example shows internal transfers without new contributions. All ratios are the speaker's method.
Key Takeaways
- The writer is moving from high-dividend ETFs paying about NT$50,000 monthly to 40% stocks, 30% leverage, and 30% cash.
- Her original calendar rotated purchases among 00670L, 00662, and 00865B; the speaker instead uses annual market direction.
- In an up year, 30% or 50% of leveraged-fund profit moves to cash or short bonds; in a down year, 2% of original assets moves into leverage.
- The NT$1 million example shows that rebalancing can occur through internal transfers without adding new money.
