In contrast, a truly balanced portfolio can help investors reduce risk and more reliably achieve their objectives. This simple fact would surprise most investors, from beginners to professionals. Investment consultant Alex Shahidi puts his 15 years of experience advising the most sophisticated investors in the world and managing multi-billion dollar portfolios to work in this important resource for investors. You will better understand why nearly every portfolio is poorly balanced and how to view the crucial asset allocation decision from a deeper, more thoughtful perspective. The concepts presented are simple, intuitive and easy to implement for every investor. Author Alex Shahidi will walk you through the logic behind the balanced portfolio framework and provide step-by-step instructions on how to build a truly balanced portfolio. No book has ever been written that discusses asset allocation in this light.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides insights from a top-ranked investment consultant using strategies from the industry’s brightest minds\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProposes a balanced asset allocation that can achieve stable returns through various economic climates\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntroduces sophisticated concepts in very simple terms\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor those who want to better manage their investment portfolio and seek a more advanced approach to building a balanced portfolio, \u003ci\u003eBalanced Asset Allocation: How to Profit in Any Economic Climate\u003c\/i\u003e provides an in-depth treatment of the topic that can be put to use immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword \u003ci\u003eBill Lee\u003c\/i\u003e ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the Author xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1 The Economic Machine: Why Being Balanced is So Important Today 5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2 Your Portfolio is Not Well Balanced 19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3 The Fundamental Drivers of Asset Class Returns 29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4 Viewing Stocks through a Balanced Portfolio Lens 49\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5 The High Value of Low-Yielding Treasuries within the Balanced Portfolio Framework 69\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6 Why TIPS are Critical to Maintaining Balance (Despite Their Low Yield) 89\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 7 Owning Commodities in a Balanced Portfolio 101\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 8 Even More Balance: Introduction to Other Asset Classes 115\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 9 How to Build a Balanced Portfolio: Conceptual Framework 127\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 10 How to Build a Balanced Portfolio: The Step-by-Step Process 143\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 11 The Balanced Portfolio: Historical Returns 155\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 12 Implementation Strategies: Putting Theory into Practice 181\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 13 Conclusion 195\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the Website 197\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 199\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Finance \u0026amp; accounting [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Finance \u0026amp; accounting\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Finance%20\u0026amp;%20accounting%20%5BKF%5D%22\"\u003eKF\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52507261829400,"sku":"9781118711941","price":35.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781118711941.jpg?v=1786441660","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/balanced-asset-allocation-how-to-profit-in-any-economic-climate-hardback-9781118711941","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
