“Good investors know, you gotta keep your hand in.”

Investments are in constant motion, so you need to keep up. At least once a year, it’s smart to schedule a portfolio review. Ask yourself:

  • Are asset allocation and investment choices still in keeping with my preference?
  • What’s my time horizon? Are you within 10 years of your goal? You may want to step down investment risk to focus on preservation rather than accumulation.
  • Is my account in balance? Sometimes a single investment can mushroom if it performs particularly well. The problem is that it then becomes bigger in relation to your other investments, putting you at potentially more risk and your account out of balance.




“As a great philosopher once advised … balance is key.”

If one of your investments gets a little top heavy over time, restoring balance is easy. Simply request new investment allocations by contacting your plan administrator.
