Mutual Fund Question

During times of extreme volatility (like now), do mutual fund managers manipulate holdings to safe-haven alternatives as the market tumbles, then re-group to take advantage of recovery period? Or simply stay-the-course?

I often wonder if I shouldn't do so myself, but normally don't based on the thinking that their professional fund managers understand the market far better than I do.

I'd be inclined to move money into more aggressive funds early this week as the market has already taken a pounding. Nice opportunity to capitalize on the rebound.

Thoughts?
