Why Asset Allocation Doesn't Matter in the Long Run
Fiduciary News; free registration required Link to more items from this source
June 24, 2015
"It turns out an investor who does not rebalance will receive a higher return in all areas compared to an investor who rebalances. Needless to say, if rebalancing a stock/bond asset allocation mix doesn't beat the results of the static case, then it certainly won't beat the 100% stock mix. Again, in this variation of the long-term test, asset allocation fails. Why does rebalancing fail? It appears, because stocks routinely (and to a significantly higher degree) perform better than bonds. That means annual rebalancing has you selling stocks in more years than you're selling bonds."
