March 2023 Asset Allocation Update For Risk-Managed Portfolios
Source: Blueprint Investment Partners
Adjustments can vary across strategies depending on each strategy's objectives. What's illustrated above most closely reflects allocation adjustments for the Growth Strategy. Diversification does not guarantee investment returns and does not eliminate the risk of loss. Diversification among investment options and asset classes may help to reduce overall volatility.
U.S. Equities
International Equities
Overall exposure will not change, but the mix will shift more toward foreign developed equities, which continue to experience uptrends across both timeframes. The intermediate-term trend in emerging market equities has reversed into a downtrend, re-joining the long-term downtrend.
Real Estate
Exposure will decrease, as the intermediate-term timeframe reverts to a downtrend, joining the negative long-term trend. The vacated exposure will be handed off to U.S. equities.
U.S. & International Treasuries
Exposure will decrease to its minimum levels, as U.S. Treasuries join their international counterparts in reverting to downtrends across both timeframes.
Inflation-Protected Bonds
Exposure will not change and is at its minimum allocation due to downtrends across both timeframes.
Alternatives
Exposure will not change. The baseline allocation for gold is also our highest limit, so we are already at the maximum allocation as the asset class continues to experience uptrends in both timeframes.
Short-Term Fixed Income
Exposure will increase, receiving allocations from weakening U.S. and international Treasuries.
