Insightful Investing Update August 2009
Just when it looked like the stock market was going to catch its breath after a fine 2nd quarter, a strong July brought the financial markets to their highest levels in 9 months. A month that gave us effectively no negative numbers was lead by Emerging Markets, International Stocks, and Real Estate, the three asset classes that coincidentally were hammered the most earlier this year. The market has reached the point where it may be time to check your asset allocation in order to rebalance those investments that may have become too large a part of your portfolio. Take advantage of any market corrections to continue to move towards the target asset asset allocation that is appropriate for you and your financial situation.
