The S&P 500 had an up short holiday week, closing at a new all time high of 3638.35 (see chart below).

After the S&P 500 closed Monday 11/16/20 at an all time high of 3626.92, it pulled back the rest of the week (see chart below)! Everybody's portfolio should look pretty good, so what's next? Nobody knows, just have you asset allocation in place to match your risk tolerance! For those that don't know what your risk tolerance is, take this questionnaire. Then look at these portfolios to see how much of a loss you can tolerate.  |
