Video Overview
This video presents the portfolio of a 34-year-old parent with a young child and two properties. The viewer began investing in 00662 and 00670L in November of year 113 and says a sale of previously held 20-year long-duration U.S. Treasury bonds resulted in a loss of about 20%. Because the allocation was not completed until April of year 114, the viewer asks which date should anchor annual rebalancing. The speaker responds with case-specific views: retain 00662, 00670L, and 00864B; conduct the first rebalance at year-end; avoid forcing the portfolio back to a fixed ratio; keep the leveraged position no larger than the cash-like position; and consider beginning with less leverage. These are views presented in the video, not recommendations from this site.
