House Keeping

I have been busy getting prepared for our yearly investment conference, which we completed last week, and now the implementation phase, but I will try and get back to posting more regularly over the next few days. Please keep checking in. As all the work preparing for, and acting on, our new asset allocation for 2008 is still in progress it will be a slow ramp up, but as that winds down Risk and Return should have a lot to think and write about.

If 2008 is half as successful for our tactical asset allocation decisions as was 2007, we should have a very nice year indeed. We still feel an absolute return bias is the proper mindset going forward, and represents the best trade off between risk and return.

We will have a review of our outlook going up Monday.

(Update 6/6/11: This note refers to my previous firm, though the opinions are purely my own.)
