| Hi everyone, In this week's Smart Investing, we focus on the important but often overlooked topic of portfolio rebalancing. In particular, we discuss the repercussions of letting your portfolio drift from its intended asset allocation, why rebalancing is often not practiced by new or younger investors and how they can begin, and why retirees should consider portfolio rebalancing through a total returns lens. Regards, | |
