We remain confident in Fixed Income assets for Long-Term Asset Preservation

I remain confident that fixed income assets are a key component of a portfolio designed for long-term asset preservation. Life insurance also plays an important part in asset allocating for safety when preserving assets over the generations.

My call for a correction in Gold turned out to be a false hope - the trend is up but at these levels I don't see a place for the average investor. Commodities may well have a role to play in asset preservation, but at the moment it looks far more like a professional traders' market.

Long term asset preservation depends on avoiding large shocks to a portfolio and in the past 2 years+ our view has been largely correct - low volatility assets outperform on a longer horizon.
