Portfolio Shield – September 2019

Linked below are the latest Morningstar® Investment Detail Reports for the Portfolio Shield™ family.

Portfolio Shield™ reduced its allocation of long-term U.S. Treasury bonds for the month of September, but remains hedged against downside risks. As a reminder, all strategies are rebalanced on the first trading day of each month and at that time, any new monies are invested according to the model strategy you are invested in.

Due to the increase in smaller balance accounts, lower-priced ETFs have been added to the models to substitute the primary Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) for those who don’t have a large enough account balance to hold the full model of ETFs. Small balance accounts may not have every position in the strategy due to price limitations of the securities in the allocation since ETFs are only trading in full share increments.

If you have any questions or would like to change which Portfolio Shield™ strategy you are invested in, please let me know.

Thank you,

Steven Van Metre, CFP®
