HOW HAVE WE DONE?
Bauer Wealth Balanced Income Index
The balanced income index strategy’s primary objective is current income. Capital appreciation is a secondary objective. In general, the strategy will allocate capital to assets that provide current yield. Total portfolio risk is equally allocated to dividend paying stocks, REITs, and high yield bonds. The strategy dynamically allocates across assets as correlations and volatilities change.
