Conservative-allocation portfolios seek to provide both capital appreciation and income by investing in three major areas: stocks, bonds, and cash. These portfolios tend to hold smaller positions in stocks than moderate-allocation portfolios. Although Morningstar has recently moved the Core Fund to its Multisector Bond category, Sierra considers Morningstar s Conservative Allocation category a better benchmark, since Sierra uses a wide variety of non-bond asset classes from time to time and shares a low-volatility goal with that category.

24 Defining Cash as an Opportunity Asset
25 Growth Assets in Financial Plans Reducing longevity risk o\en requires alloca8ons to growth assets such as: Developed market equi8es and high yield bonds; Emerging market equi8es and bonds. Total Returns $2.50 $2.00 $1.50 $1.00 $0.50 S&P 500 Total Return Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Index Dec-12 Dec-10 Dec-08 Dec-06 Barclays Global EM Sovereign Debt (USD) $0.00 Dec-04 Periodic economic contrac8ons and financial leverage can cause temporary and severe price declines in growth assets (with high posi8ve correla8on).
26 Impact of Drawdowns Financial plans typically do not present drawdowns or severe price declines: Cannot predict date of drawdown; Plans are path dependent. Drawdowns reduce confidence and create fear of plan failure. Clients will not want to re- balance (sell income assets to buy growth assets).
27 Change Fear to Opportunity Plan to generate cash in early years. Ask clients to iden8fy sources of cash to buy growth assets cheaply. Begin a dialogue of opportunity rather than fear. Market sell- offs become the expected buying opportunity rather than the feared belt- 8ghtening.
28 Build Cash and Generate Crisis Cash Change lifestyle now to build cash. Expect to rebalance gains from growth assets into cash war chest. Treat cash as a call op8on client uses to buy cheap assets. Embrace put op8ons for protec8on to generate cash in a market crisis.
