An investor who sat in a 60/40 portfolio from the top in 2007 to the bottom in 2009 saw bonds rise as stocks fell. SPY fell 54 percent and TLT rose 22 percent, making for a net loss of 23.60 percent. Not fund to see, but not bad. If cash instead of bonds, 32.40 percent loss.

An investor who was 60/40 in SPY and TLT this year is down 27.20 percent. If they were in cash, they're down 14.4 percent.

Except I think is this maybe nearing the end of Round 1 of the bear…
