Would like to hear lots of comments on my actual retirement IRA investments.

I have 50% of retirement savings in a guaranteed income fund. I have the other 50% divided into the 4 funds listed. The YTD increases are intoxicating, but are my investments too risky for a 7 year retirement horizon?

Please leave a message. I appriate all points of view.

Moved 10% out of MGEMX, FOCPX and ALMRX into guaranteed income fund on a day when the market bumped up. My portfolio had been down about 5% and I - well - ran scared.

Had this fund since inception. Funds have quadrupled :-D Have 5% in this fund. I haven't moved any from this fund primarily because I do not know where to put it. Is this too risky now?

I took some profits by moving some into guaranteed income. But still have 15% in this fund. Then I moved 4% because the market is falling like a rock. Is this too risky now?
