This is the way I do it every time. There has to be annual rebalancing. Remember that rebalancing does not need to be frequent - annually is sufficient. However, your actual portfolio allocations will be constantly changing due to varying performances and as you withdraw funds. |

Frequency of portfolio rebalancing basically depends upon the risk tolerance level of an individual and therefore, one has to define his/her risk tolerance level- in terms of certain % change its origional composition, due to asymetric movement of the prices of the instruments in the portfolio or based on periodicity like monthly/quarterly etc.. Sometimes, rebalancing is done to take advantage of specific markets/instrumentsbased on private information orother reasons. Dynamic programing based approach is widely used by top fund managers and academicians also accept its superiority and simplicity in designing and re-balancing optimal portfolio.

Enjoy the bull market while it lasts, but don't let several
terrific years deflect you from a long-term strategy. In short, I suggest remembering:
The market does advance, but in cycles that go down as well as up. Plan
your asset allocations for the long term through both phases.

At least 10 per cent of a portfolio must be committed to a
market segment to have a meaningful impact on your portfolio. If your
desired allocation to a particular asset class is only 10 percent, you would
not want to stray below that amount by very much; in contrast, falling a few
percentage points below a 30 percent desired level would be less of a concern.
So over commitment is dangerous.
