The Lost Decade? Not! (14:12)

The financial press keeps spouting the last 10 years as the lost decade. Well maybe for all those investors with portfolios they thought were diversified, but actually were not. Many investors simply invested in large company U.S. based stocks, like the S&P 500, thinking they were diversified with 500 holdings.

Watch the video and Mark demonstrates what a truly diversified portfolio returned during the lost decade. Being disciplined, diversified, and rebalancing is an excellent strategy (adding high quality fixed income to adjust risk according to your risk tolerance). If you let your emotions get in the way (fear &greed), you could ruin your long term returns.

True Diversification = Dissimilar Price Movement (2:13)
Just because you own a lot of stocks, does not mean you are diversified. You have to own different asset classes that have dissimilar price movement. This means that from time to time you will have underperforming assets in your portfolio. Don't worry, most often the best performing asset classes one year will move down the list and be poor performers the next year. And vice versa the worst performing asset classes often become good assets in the following years. No one can predict in advance which asset classes will be the best, so own a wide variety and rebalance to keep risk in check.

With a diversified portfolio, there will be times when you underperform the S&P 500 and times when you outperform the S&P 500. This video shows why you should stay disciplined and remain diversified regardless of periodic outperformance or underperformance.
