- 5 Use the allocation percentages to identify overweight or underweight positions.
- What is asset allocation and why does it matter?
- Asset allocation is how your investment portfolio is divided among different asset classes — equities, bonds, real estate, cash, commodities, and alternatives. It is the most important determinant of long-term portfolio risk and return, accounting for over 90% of performance variability according to studies. Different asset classes have low or negative correlations, so diversifying across them reduces overall portfolio volatility.
- What is a good portfolio allocation for long-term investing?
- A classic starting point is the 60/40 portfolio — 60% equities and 40% bonds. Younger investors with a long horizon and high risk tolerance often go 80–100% equities. As retirement approaches, shifting more to bonds and cash reduces volatility. A popular rule of thumb: hold (100 − your age)% in equities. Use this visualizer to check your current allocation against your target.
- How often should I rebalance my portfolio?
- Most financial advisors recommend rebalancing once or twice a year, or whenever an asset class drifts more than 5% from its target allocation. For example, if equities have a great year and grow from 60% to 70% of your portfolio, rebalancing means selling some equities and buying bonds to restore the 60/40 target. Rebalancing enforces a buy-low/sell-high discipline automatically.
