This week I enjoyed a recent article in which Allan Roth digs into a surprising set of Monte Carlo results from Fisher Investments, in which all-stock portfolios were shown to be safer than diversified stock/bond portfolios. A good reminder that you need to know what assumptions went into a given set of simulations (or into a given piece of research in general) before you know whether or not you can trust it.
