The risk profile, derived from past market volatility, reflects the level of risk the portfolio is exposed to. This assessment helps align your investments with your financial goals and comfort with market fluctuations.
The diversification assessment evaluates the spread of investments across asset classes, regions, and sectors. This ensures a balanced mix, reducing risk and maximizing returns by not concentrating in any single area.
Balanced Investors
This portfolio suits an investor looking for a balance between growth and income, with a moderate risk tolerance and a long-term investment horizon. It's designed for those who prefer a diversified approach, with a mix of stable, high-dividend-paying assets and growth-oriented sectors. Ideal for investors who are comfortable with some exposure to market fluctuations but seek to mitigate extreme volatility through diversification and a focus on established markets.
This portfolio is structured around five ETFs, with a strong emphasis on momentum and high-dividend yields, accounting for 90% in stocks and 10% in bonds. The allocation spans various sectors, with significant positions in Financial Services, Industrials, and Technology, indicating a blend of growth and stability. The geographic allocation is predominantly in North America and Europe, reflecting a conservative approach to international exposure. This composition suggests a strategy aiming for growth through market trends while seeking income through dividends.
Historically, the portfolio has shown impressive performance with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 22.18% and a maximum drawdown of -15.32%. The days contributing to 90% of returns being concentrated in just 24.0 days highlights the impact of significant market movements on performance. This historical performance, while strong, should be viewed with the understanding that past results do not guarantee future outcomes.
Monte Carlo simulations project a wide range of outcomes, with the median scenario suggesting a potential increase of 1,345.7%. This method uses historical data to forecast future performance, providing a probabilistic range of outcomes rather than a specific return. However, it's important to note that these projections are based on past market behaviors, which may not repeat in the future.
The portfolio's asset class allocation is heavily skewed towards stocks (90%), with a smaller bond component (10%). This mix supports the portfolio's balanced profile but leans more towards growth, given the dominant stock allocation. This composition is suitable for investors seeking a mix of income and capital appreciation, though it may carry higher volatility than more conservative allocations.
Sectoral allocation shows a diversified approach, with significant investments in Financial Services, Industrials, and Technology. This diversification can help mitigate sector-specific risks, but the concentration in these sectors also exposes the portfolio to sectoral trends and economic cycles. The balance between cyclical (e.g., Technology) and defensive sectors (e.g., Utilities) suggests an attempt to blend growth and stability.
Geographically, the portfolio is heavily weighted towards North America (54%) and Europe (19%), with minimal exposure to emerging markets. This conservative geographic distribution aligns with the portfolio's balanced risk profile but may limit potential growth from emerging market economies. Expanding geographic diversity could enhance returns and reduce volatility over the long term.
The market capitalization breakdown, with a focus on Mega (32%) and Big (30%) cap stocks, underscores the portfolio's preference for established, large-scale companies. This allocation likely contributes to the portfolio's stability and resilience but may limit exposure to the higher growth potential of smaller companies. Considering a broader cap spectrum could introduce more growth opportunities.
The portfolio's dividend yield stands at an average of 2.14%, with individual ETF yields ranging from 0.60% to 5.50%. This indicates a strategic focus on income generation through dividends, complementing capital growth strategies. Regular dividend income can provide a steady cash flow and mitigate volatility, aligning with the portfolio's balanced approach.
With a total Expense Ratio (TER) of 0.25%, the portfolio's costs are relatively low, which is beneficial for long-term growth. Lower costs mean more of the investment's return is retained by the investor, enhancing compounding effects over time. Continuously monitoring and managing these costs is crucial for maintaining portfolio efficiency.
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 risk-return profile suggests room for optimization, with potential for achieving a 7.10% expected return at a similar risk level. This implies that adjustments in asset allocation could yield better outcomes. Regularly reviewing and adjusting the portfolio to maintain an optimal balance between risk and return is advisable.
