VizMetrics Permanent Plus
Objective
The VizMetrics Permanent Plus folio is designed for investors seeking an ETF portfolio that uses an easy-to-implement Strategic Asset Allocation and also provides upside potential in a variety of market conditions. Visit www.VizMetrics.com for additional information about the VizMetrics Permanent Plus folio design and asset allocation.
Strategy
The VizMetrics Permanent Plus folio uses a strategic asset allocation approach. This folio starts with Harry Browne’s Permanent Portfolio, but then removes the cash component. This increases the portfolio’s volatility, but can also increase the portfolio’s total return. This folio uses ETFs to represent 3 major asset classes: U.S. large-cap growth equity, U.S. long-term treasury bonds, and gold.
