Positions

The portfolio is a blend of 83% stocks, 12% bonds, and 5% real estate, showcasing a growth-oriented approach with a moderate to high risk profile. The majority stock allocation is appropriate for growth but comes with increased volatility. The bond and real estate holdings provide some diversification benefits, potentially reducing overall portfolio volatility. However, the heavy leaning towards technology and financial services sectors could expose the portfolio to sector-specific risks.

Growth Info

Historically, this portfolio has demonstrated a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 15.86%, with a significant max drawdown of -30.68%. These figures indicate a high-reward but also high-risk profile, underlined by the days contributing most to returns. Such performance, while impressive, should be weighed against the backdrop of market cycles and the inherent volatility in tech and growth stocks.

Projection Info

Monte Carlo simulations project a wide range of outcomes, emphasizing the uncertainty inherent in investing. With a median projected growth of 592.3%, the simulations underscore the potential for significant gains. However, the presence of a 5th percentile outcome at -16.3% also highlights the risk of loss. These projections, while useful for understanding potential volatility and reward, are based on historical data and cannot guarantee future results.

Asset classes Info

    83%
  • Bonds
    12%
  • Real Estate
    5%

The allocation across stocks, bonds, and real estate is a classic growth portfolio setup, aiming for long-term capital appreciation with a cushion against stock market volatility provided by bonds. This mix supports a strategy focused on growth while acknowledging the need for risk management through diversification across asset classes.

The technology sector's dominant 36% allocation reflects a conviction in tech's growth prospects but also increases susceptibility to sector-specific downturns. Financial services and healthcare are well-represented, offering balance. However, the limited exposure to defensive sectors like consumer staples or utilities could mean less protection in market downturns.

With 74% of assets in North America and a notable 8% in emerging Asian markets, the geographic distribution supports growth but with geographical concentration risk. Diversifying more into developed international markets or underrepresented regions could provide additional risk mitigation and exposure to global growth opportunities.

    14%
  • No data
    3%
  • Small-cap

The focus on mega and big cap stocks (68% combined) is typical for a growth strategy seeking stability and proven performance. However, the inclusion of medium, small, and micro caps, albeit limited, is crucial for diversification and accessing higher growth potential in smaller companies.

Redundant positions Info

    Vanguard Russell 1000 Growth Index Fund ETF Shares
    High correlation

The high correlation between the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF and Vanguard Russell 1000 Growth Index Fund ETF Shares suggests redundancy, limiting the diversification benefits. Reducing overlap by reallocating from highly correlated assets could enhance portfolio efficiency without necessarily increasing risk.
