When Diversification Fails; and Why We Still Believe

Happy Holidays!

As 2013 comes to an end, the S&P 500 (largest 500 companies in the United States) is up 29.42% (as of 12/19/2013). Many compare their portfolio to this common index and will be in for a surprise as they review their year-end statements. Conversely, the Barclays United States Aggregate Bond Index (total United State bond market) is down 1.97%.

Naturally, one would question if a diversified portfolio is the right strategy. The short answer is – YES.
