This portfolio consists of equal allocations across eight assets, including both common stocks and ETFs, each making up 12.5% of the portfolio. The balanced distribution helps mitigate concentration risk and aligns with a conservative profile. Compared to typical benchmarks, this structure is moderately diversified, focusing on income-generating assets. To enhance diversification, consider introducing more varied asset types or reducing reliance on a few high-yield positions. This could provide a more robust buffer against market volatility.

Growth Info

Historically, this portfolio has delivered a commendable CAGR of 11.61%, outperforming many conservative benchmarks. With a maximum drawdown of just -8.35%, it has shown resilience during downturns. However, it's important to remember that past performance doesn't guarantee future results. To sustain this performance, regularly review asset performance and market conditions. This vigilance can help maintain the portfolio's growth trajectory while managing risks effectively.

Projection Info

Using Monte Carlo simulations, this portfolio's potential future performance was analyzed. The 50th percentile projection suggests a significant growth of 357.6%, indicating a strong return potential. However, simulations rely on historical data and assumptions, which may not reflect future market conditions. Regularly updating these projections can provide more accurate insights. Consider stress-testing the portfolio under different economic scenarios to understand potential risks and opportunities better.

Asset classes Info

  • Stocks
    71%
  • Bonds
    24%
  • No data
    4%
  • Cash
    2%

The portfolio primarily comprises stocks (71%) and bonds (24%), with a small portion in cash. This allocation supports income generation while maintaining moderate risk. Compared to conservative benchmarks, the stock allocation is slightly higher, which may increase volatility. Consider adjusting the stock-bond ratio to align more closely with risk tolerance. Incorporating more bonds or cash can provide stability during market fluctuations.

  • Real Estate
    0%

The portfolio is heavily weighted towards consumer defensive (30%) and financial services (15%), providing stability and income. This concentration may limit exposure to growth sectors like technology and healthcare. While consumer defensive stocks are less volatile, diversifying across more sectors could capture growth opportunities and reduce sector-specific risks. Evaluate sector trends and adjust allocations to balance stability with potential growth.

  • Europe Developed
    13%
  • Latin America

    0%
  • Asia Emerging
    0%

The geographic allocation is predominantly North American (62%), with limited exposure to Europe (13%) and none to Asia or Latin America. This focus on North America may limit diversification benefits. Expanding geographic exposure can reduce regional risk and capture global growth opportunities. Consider adding assets from emerging markets to enhance diversification and potentially boost returns.

The portfolio leans towards large-cap stocks, with big (54%) and mega (9%) companies dominating. This focus provides stability and reliable dividends but may limit growth potential. Including more mid-cap and small-cap stocks could enhance diversification and capture higher growth opportunities. Regularly review market cap distribution to ensure alignment with investment goals.
