QikReview: Fund Picks and Allocation Targets

After reviewing all the available funds in the previous posts, I was able to pick three funds that provide high quality management and deliver solid returns as compared with their category peers and other funds under review. I also believe that these funds will provide a good allocation: domestic stocks, international stocks, and bonds.

45% Dodge & Cox Stock (DODGX) - I think the domestic market will bounce back sooner than overseas markets will, especially Europe.

30% American Funds EuroPacific Growth (AEPGX.LW) - This fund will provide good exposure to the international markets once they do bounce back while limiting risk in the meantime.

25% Goldman Sachs High Yield (GSHIX) - This fund's goal is to cushion the stock holdings' volatility while not capping the overall returns by providing higher than average yield.
