Visible price weakening across the whole portfolio. Appears to be a change of wind direction.
Wind's been backing for a few months, change in weather ahead I fear. Still 5 yrs of sun was bliss while it lasted.
(Backing was a wrong analogy, but I'll leave it in to generate discussion. I'm sure a sailor will pitch up soon.)0 -

I'm personally expecting further retrenchment. After a period of what have been exceptional returns by historic standards. Far ahead of where I hoped to be. Therefore no complaints.0 - 
            Late to the party......my passive portfolio of 50% VTSAX (US Equity), 20% VTIAX (International; Equity) and 30% VTBLX (US Bonds) had a balance at the end of March of $103410....so still up 3.4%.“So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”0

            Well we are back up again to 107,865, pretty much in line with the FTSE world for this month
Every chance I get I have been selling a bit of my tech fund to re-invest into my regional UK and Europe funds. Its been a good run but I have been a bit too overweight tech in recent times and Fundsmith has increased its tech weighting. Oh, and I also hold some SMT elsewhere. I guess you could say I have been doing a bit of 'market timing' tut tut.0 -

            Interesting to see that my portfolio in $ is at +3.4%, but in pounds is -1.3%.....the pound is getting stronger and stronger. I'm glad I spend $.“So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”0
