Anybody looked at 3 year REAL Returns!

Post by modeljc »

As of May 8, 2016 I have REAL RETURNS:

YTD +8.1%
12 months +4.5%
24 months +4.1%
36 months +3.0%

Very much like 40 years of long term returns.  Just like the book suggested.

Before any one would want to bail out of The Permanent Portfolio I would recommend you KEEP a three year foucus.  I think medium tex suggested IT.

Agreed 100%.  And not just a 3-year focus, but a 3-year focus on real returns, as you suggested.  That's where the PP differentiates itself from a lot of portfolios.

Rarely after a book come out that the returns match the book.

How does this compare to the three fund Boglehead portfolio?
