NEWBURY PARK, CA, October 10, 2012 (Press-News.org) ETF Portfolio Management (ETF PM), today reported performance for the Investable Benchmarks through September 2012. Year-to-date (YTD), the Investable Benchmarks returned 7% to 11% while the S&P 500 gained 16%.
The Investable Benchmarks consist of three passive core portfolios comprised of leading ETFs from Vanguard and iShares: Income, Income & Growth, and Growth. Over the past 10.8 years, all three passive core portfolios returned 8% to 9% annually. These efficient portfolios yield over 2.5% per year with expense ratios under 0.20%.
See www.InvestableBenchmarks.com for additional information.
The Investable Benchmarks present tough competition for active management. ETF PM's growth benchmark is an efficient multi-asset class (eMAC) portfolio based on David Swensen's recommendation in "Unconventional Success." Swensen's performance managing Yale University's multi-billion dollar endowment fund is leading Wall Street in many respects and his views have significantly broadened the industry's perception of proper diversification.
Absolute Return Strategies
ETF PM also specializes in disciplined ETF trend following. The firm provides a dynamic range of strategies that seek to deliver positive returns in all market environments. The firm's trend following strategies delivered gains in the crash of 2008, and ETF PM focuses on hybrid portfolios that combine trend following with indexing.
