October turned out to be quite a strong month for US stocks as the historical seasonality suggested. Let’s see what that strong showing did to the tactical asset allocations for November. Here are the tactical asset allocation updates for November 2015. All portfolio updates are online as part of Paul’s GTAA 13 Portfolio New sheet. First, for the basic portfolios – the GTAA5 and the Permanent Portfolio. GTAA5 is now 60% invested with VTI and VNQ going to be invested this month. For the timing version of the Permanent Portfolio VTI went back to invested for this coming month. (click to enlarge) Now for the more aggressive GTAA AGG3 and AGG6 portfolios. Below is the snapshot of all the 13 asset classes. (click to enlarge) Big changes for both AGG3 and AGG6 this month. AGG3 is going to be fully invested with equal allocations to MTUM , VNQ , and VTV . AGG6 is mostly invested with 33% of the portfolio still in cash. Performance for the portfolios so far this year is in the table below. Numbers are for each month. The figures are estimates taken from a variety of sources. I don’t do detailed performance tracking until the end of the year. For comparison, I ran the YTD performance for the IVY B&H13 portfolio, from which the AGG3 and AGG6 portfolios are derived. That portfolio is down -5.23% for the year. (click to enlarge) If you’re a fan of the Antonacci dual momentum GEM and GBM portfolios, GEM is back in US stocks. The bond portion of GBM is now in cash. I’ve also made my Antonacci tracking sheet shareable so you can see the portfolio details for yourself. That’s it for this month. These portfolios signals are valid for the whole month of November.
