Our own TSX lagged well behind Wall Street but still managed to post a modest gain of 6 per cent for 2017. How much do you currently have invested in stocks, bonds and cash? After what happened in 2017, chances are your asset mix is out of whack from what you originally intended. Let’s assume a balanced portfolio with $100,000 that was invested 60 per cent in stocks, 30 per cent in bonds and 10 per cent in cash at the start of 2017. We’ll be generous and give the cash balance a 1 per cent gain for the year, or $100.
