Default Why do we need cash?

I'm new to this topic, so maybe somone asked this already...

Anyway, why do people recommend to have like 5% cash in your mutual fund portfolio? I'm looking at this one particular model, and it says 75% US stocks, 20% international, and 5% cash, as an optimal aggressive plan.

Thanks

Soh
