Yes, anything can happen. Such as Corporate Raider or Corporate Robber may appears too.
WB:-

1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.

Truism of Investments.
A) Buying a security is buying RISK not Return
B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.

1) Why are you afraid of the volatility?

Mitigating risk is simple. Buy when price is low relative to value. Low price = low risk = high return and vice versa.

2) 70% equities. 30% cash. No bonds.

Funds Managers are not only measured by the returns only. The standard deviation and sharpe ratio are important benchmarks as well.

The SAA gives a good estimation of the expected returns and volatility of the fund. TAA would involve buying assets with low prices relative to valuation and increase the expected returns.
