MARKET MONTHLY: JAN 2010
Investment Strategy
We continued to overweight our overall equity allocation in our balanced and growth models. Within our equity allocations, we overweighted U.S. equities, underweighted developed international stocks, and maintained a strategic weighting to emerging markets. We are gradually moving toward a new, higher target weighting for emerging markets, from 8% of the total equity weighting to 11%. Emerging markets, as a percentage of the total world equity market capitalization, have been trending upward during the past decade, and we expect this trend to continue.
