» azxcvbnm - Please give me your take on my asset allocation

In response to Please give me your take on my asset allocation posted by Derelict:


Your allocation looks pretty solid to me, I can only offer some nitpicking which is more a matter of personal preference. I would have more foreign exposure; foreign markets seem cheaper than the US market currently. 10%-20% more in foreign markets while keeping a 80% developed foreign vs. 20% emerging foreign mix would be my main suggestion. Again, this is only a matter of personal preference and you need not feel that there is something wrong with your current scheme.

Placing most of your bond allocation with GNMA is again, your decision. I would go to a shorter duration fund or money market right now, but for a long-term set it and leave it portfolio, GNMA is OK. If you're satisfied with this allocation, then there's no need to change.
