What’s Happening at ACG

ACG’s October Capital Markets Review

By ACG, resources, November 15, 2024

Markets pulled back across asset classes in October after five straight months of gains for equities and a strong year so far in fixed income.

Revisiting Diversification

By ACG, resources, November 1, 2024

The last decade has seen U.S. Large Cap stocks dominate investment returns, often overshadowing the advantages of asset class diversification. For long-term investors, it's crucial to recognize that future returns may diverge significantly from recent trends. While 2012/2013 might have seemed ideal for increasing exposure to U.S. Large Cap stocks, moving away from previously successful asset classes can be challenging. As we look ahead, the next decade's performance could be markedly different from the past ten years.
