Abstract
I investigate the allocation of wealth to cash, bonds, and stocks, along with the bond-to-stock ratio (BSR) when interest rates are time-varying and stock returns are predictable via the dividend-price ratio (DPR). The bond–stock mix and the BSR vary with the deviation of the current level of the DPR from its long-run mean and the correlations between all asset classes. The BSR may decrease over time, which contradicts both previously reported results on the matter as well as popular advice. Finally, I show that it is only at the investment horizon that the BSR is independent of risk aversion.
