The first of five sample portfolios found in Tom Lydon and John F. Wasik’s book, iMoney: Profitable ETF Strategies for Every Investor is an aggressive portfolio.  Below are the holdings and target percentages.

  • SPY = 10%
  • VO = 15%
  • IWM = 15%
  • QQQQ = 10%
  • EFA = 20%
  • EEM = 10%
  • EEB = 5%
  • ILF = 10%
  • TLT = 5%

Running an analysis on this portfolio we have the following.

  • Projected Return (using three-year data) = 10.58%
  • Standard Deviation (SD) = 18.6%
  • Portfolio Autocorrelation (PA) = 44.3%
  • Diversification Metric (DM) = 20%
  • R^2 = 92.3%

We can improve these values with a different asset mix.
