Confused about dryer sheets
Does anyone know what FireCalc uses as the default assumption for sub-equity asset allocation? The "total market" portfolio choice lets me choose the equity assumption (starting at 75%). But I don't know what "equity" means. There is no indication of the assumed percentage allocation within equity assets (micro/small/mid/large/us/global/Commodities). Someone must have tested alternative types of equity sub-allocations and picked the best one for the model runs.
If I run the model using the "mixed portfolio" scenario, I can't duplicate any of the "total market" results. Does anyone know what investment results are in the model for each of the "mixed portfolio" components over which time periods? (ie, the model assumes that US small value funds return 5% over 10 years, and 12% over 20 years.)
Obviously, I'm looking for historical/model guidance on which equity sub-asset mixes produce the best results.
Thanks!
