Consider funds that close out their positions by the end of every day. They're implicitly being as fearful as possible (in a world with just cash and stock), which is not obviously the optimal approach to long-run timing.
Even if most funds did this, it would only take a few attempting to take advantage of this to eliminate any profit opportunity for non-hedge funds.
