Pick your favorite financial publication. One minute, they tout a financial collapse and pending recession, and then seemingly on a dime, headlines change to - "cash yields are attractive" and "the stock market finishes at its highest level in twelve months." Making portfolio decisions through all the noise can be a challenge. What is the right investment strategy? How much should you put in stocks? Do you need bonds? CDs? What type of stocks or bonds? What about other or "alternative" investments. All are good questions and just touch the tip of the iceberg.

On this episode, hear Tyler Emrick, CFA®, CFP®, dive into these questions and, more broadly, how you should think about asset allocation -- aka your "investment recipe". Pay special attention to how aligning your financial life planning and your goals to your investment decisions is a critical step many misunderstand or overlook.

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:

Determining how much you can afford to withdraw in retirement each month.
Should you be favoring cash and bonds over stocks and what are the benefits of each?
How to design the proper portfolio that aligns with your goals.
Having a more dynamic retirement plan and a more dynamic investment plan.

For successful investors and high-income earners, this is an episode not to miss... Sure, you can own an S&P 500 ETF or mutual fund. You could also own the 500 stocks individually, a strategy nowadays called direct indexing. Direct indexing aims to capitalize on individual stock volatility and add tax benefits by harvesting losses. Or you may choose to go a step farther up the complexity ladder to own the 500 stocks individually with a tax-aware, long-short overlay. Let's call that TALS for short. Here you expect to obtain the return of the S&P 500, add an extra return from the overlay, increase diversification, and provide significantly more tax benefits than direct indexing. It's a mouthful, but it sure sounds good! Have a sizable brokerage account? Have unrealized capital gains? Be sure to listen to Kevin Kroskey, CFP®, MBA explore why adding the TALS strategy can help solve these good problems to have. Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode: The Q4 focus for our clients and an office update. These strategies are bit more complex so they broadly apply more for successful investors.
