Investment Report
May 2010
The first quarter of 2010 was a moderate continuation of 2009’s impressive recovery. Economic metrics suggest the financial environment is healing. The resulting growth in confidence has helped boost investment values. After extensive discussion and research, we at Mosaic came to the conclusion that increasing exposure to alternative investments generally helps reduce portfolio volatility. Based on historical experience, our hope is that the alternatives will act as additional diversifiers, helping buoy the portfolio when times are more uncertain and less traditional sources of returns are needed. Lessening downturns in your portfolio will help you sleep better at night and will actually increase the probability of you reaching your long term goals. As Warren Buffett says, “You only find out who is swimming naked when the tide goes out.” We want to help you keep your suit on.
