This is our weekly portfolio review of the portfolios you can find at https://www.riskparityradio.com/portfoliosWe also discuss the All Seasons Portfolio in a little more depth, including why it may not be the best representative of a risk-parity style portfolio and what it is missing.The All Seasons portfolio is a reference portfolio that is modeled after Ray Dalio's All Weather portfolio and is described in "Money:  Master the Game" by Tony Robbins.  It is a very conservative portfolio that is comprised of four asset classes in five funds, allocated as follows:  30% total U.S. stock market (VTI), 40% long-term treasury bonds (TLT), 15% intermediate-term treasury bonds (VGIT) 7.5% gold (GLDM) and 7.5% commodities (PDBC).  Since 1970, it has a compounded annual growth rate (after inflation) of 5.6%, and an expected permanent safe withdrawal rate of 3.8%.  Here are the links I mentioned to theoretical risk-parity portfolios from the literature:Risk Parity Portfolios:  Efficient Portfolios Through True Diversification:  https://www.panagora.com/assets/PanAgora-Risk-Parity-Portfolios-Efficient-Portfolios-Through-True-Diversification.pdfRisk Parity:  Silver Bullet Or A Bridge Too Far (CFA Multi-Asset Strategies Manual Chapter 4):  CFA Manual Risk Parity Chapter-2018.pdf - Google DriveSupport the show
