All-weather Portfolio

Brett Arends writes about the investment portfolio he uses?

what is in this all-weather portfolio?

It’s 10% each in the following 10 asset classes:

  • U.S. “Minimum Volatility” stocks
  • International Developed “Minimum Volatility” stocks
  • Emerging Markets “Minimum Volatility” stocks
  • Global natural-resource stocks
  • US Real Estate Investment Trusts
  • International Real Estate Investment Trusts
  • 30-Year Zero Coupon Treasury bonds
  • 30-Year TIPS
  • Global bonds
  • 2-Year Treasury bonds (cash equivalent)

This is another interesting portfolio choice. I have discussed my thoughts on portfolio choices several times. This one is again a bit bond heavy for my tastes. I like the global nature of this one. I like real estate focus – though as mentioned in previous articles how people factor in their personal real estate (home and investments) needs to be considered.
