If you have another tax-deferred account, you might be able to temporarily move some assets in that account to stock funds in order to stay in the market to your usual extent while you are waiting for the transfer from your 401(k) to IRA to take place. I did something like that recently my TSP account when we bought a new house a couple of months before selling our old house. I guess you could do that in a taxable account also but you would have to worry about capital gains and losses.
