Positions

Your portfolio is structured around a core of target retirement and balanced funds, complemented by specific equity exposures. The largest holding, the State Street Target Retirement 2035 Fund, indicates a planning horizon aligning with a retirement date around 2035. This is supplemented by the American Balanced Fund and the Invesco American Franchise Fund, adding diversification across asset classes and sectors. The Vanguard ETFs introduce direct stock market exposure, both domestically and internationally, rounding out the portfolio's diversification.

Growth Info

Historically, your portfolio has achieved a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 10.68%, with a maximum drawdown of -27.50%. This performance is indicative of a balanced risk-return profile, suitable for investors with a moderate risk tolerance. The days contributing most to returns highlight the portfolio's potential for significant short-term gains amidst overall steady growth. Comparing these metrics to benchmarks would further contextualize performance, especially considering the balanced nature of the portfolio.

Projection Info

Monte Carlo simulations, utilizing 1,000 iterations, project a wide range of potential outcomes, emphasizing the uncertainty inherent in investing. The median outcome suggests a significant potential for growth (319.9% increase), with the majority of simulations yielding positive returns. This analysis, while based on historical data, offers a lens into the future, underscoring the importance of maintaining a diversified and balanced approach to mitigate risks.

Your portfolio's asset allocation—74% stocks, 23% bonds, and a small percentage in cash and other assets—strikes a balance between growth potential and risk mitigation. This allocation aligns with a moderate risk profile, leveraging stocks for growth while using bonds to cushion against market volatility. Adjusting the bond-to-stock ratio could further align the portfolio with your risk tolerance and investment horizon.

The sectoral allocation reveals a heavy emphasis on technology, financial services, and industrials, reflecting a growth-oriented strategy.

Diversifying into underrepresented sectors, like utilities or real estate, could offer additional stability and income through dividends, balancing the portfolio's growth prospects with defensive characteristics.

    1%
  • Latin America
    1%

With 72% of assets in North America and significant exposures to developed Europe and Japan, your portfolio is well-positioned to capture growth in major economies. However, the relatively low allocation to emerging markets may limit exposure to high-growth regions. Increasing investments in these areas could enhance returns, albeit with higher risk.

  • Micro-cap

The focus on mega and large-cap stocks (57% combined) supports stability and liquidity in your portfolio. Medium, small, and micro-cap stocks, though less represented, offer growth potential and diversification benefits. A slight adjustment to include more small and medium-cap stocks could enhance returns without significantly increasing risk, given the balanced nature of the portfolio.

    American Balanced Fund Class A Sh

The high correlation between the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund ETF Shares and the American Balanced Fund Class A Sh suggests redundancy, potentially limiting diversification benefits. Identifying and reducing overlapping holdings can enhance the portfolio's efficiency, ensuring each investment contributes uniquely to your objectives.

Risk vs. return

This chart shows the Efficient Frontier, calculated using your current assets with different allocation combinations. It highlights the best balance between risk and return based on historical data. "Efficient" portfolios maximize returns for a given risk or minimize risk for a given return. Portfolios below the curve are less efficient. This is informational and not a recommendation to buy or sell any assets.

The portfolio's current structure suggests room for optimization, particularly by addressing asset overlap and fine-tuning the risk-return profile. The potential for a more efficient portfolio, maintaining the same level of risk but aiming for a slightly lower expected return of 10.20%, indicates that with strategic adjustments, your portfolio could achieve better alignment with the Efficient Frontier. This involves balancing diversification and risk management to enhance overall performance.
