Description

The Levered Seasons Portfolio is based on the construction shown over at Risk Parity Chronicles as part of their suite of test portfolios. It is intended to reflect a levered version of a more traditional “all-weather” or “all-seasons” portfolio.

While only 30% of the portfolio is invested inequity, the small- and large-cap asset classes seem to be contributing well over 80% of the risk in the portfolio. Therefore, this strategy may be best for someone still in their accumulation stage.
