The table has been updated. Stocks continue up and bonds down.

Being hesitant executing a signal from any trading system is quite natural. One of the reasons is that no system is right 100% of the time and many wrong 50% of the time. Following our system and selling stocks in May looked good back then, but people who just held to their stock funds did better this time.

If that feels discouraging, look back a little further and see that those who did not sell in 2008 are still at a loss.

Not trying to outguess a system and following all signals takes discipline.
