Diversification Across Time , offers some practical techniques to do so. Co-authored by Barry Nalebuff , a Professor at the Yale School of Management , the article appeared in the Winter 2013 issue of The Journal of Portfolio Management .In this Practical Applications report, the authors outline a relatively simple “leveraged lifecycle” retirement savings strategy, which they say reduces risk and potentially increases returns. Ayres and Nalebuff originally proposed the strategy in a 2005 Forbes article. Their idea flew in the face of conventional wisdom, but after going back to run the numbers, the authors proved the strategy works.
