Highest stock market returns will come from: NOT WHERE YOU LIVE. National bias and portfolio patriotism costs investors so much. Always underweight or avoid investing in your “home” country. You have enough exposure just living there. World’s top performers since 1900 were South Africa and Australia, frontiers then. Massive return opportunities were lost tying up capital in “northern” markets by geographically ignorant, domestically biased investors. Most pensions are at disastrous funding levels because they overweight “home”.Emerging markets? When India and China are the world’s largest economies AGAIN, so what? They are 90% of the time. In most recent 2000 years, USA was biggest for 1, UK for 1 and China or India for 18. Other things being equal, the most populated nations MUST have the biggest economies. As recently as 1700 China … [Read More...]

NO you are NOT diversified because the way relationships and dependencies are calculated between allegedly “different” asset classes and securities is WRONG. Correlation metrics have nothing to do with achieving diversification. Most “experts” don’t know how easy it is to prove that for any time series of any length, there exist infinite other PERFECTLY CORRELATED (+1.0) data sets but still INCREASE diversification. That simple fact invalidates Markowitz-Sharpe portfolio “optimization”. Trillions are wrongly invested due to dumb guesses, pathetic analytics, absurd assumptions, dubious advice and junk statistics.Corollary also applies: infinite other data sets exist that are zero or perfectly negatively correlated (-1.0) but REDUCE diversification. Simple proof but ignored by the asset allocation crowd selling their risky ideas. No wonder most pension plans are … [Read More...]
