Market Guard® ETF Model Portfolios
Market Guard® ETF Model Portfolios are managed to specific equity and fixed income targets and are implemented through the use of ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds). The model portfolios will invest in multiple asset classes ranging from US Equities, International Equities, Fixed Income, Commodities and Real Estate. Along with global diversification, Market Guard® maintains an acute awareness of the individual standard deviation and maximum drawdown to each portfolio and investment methodology. We believe in the importance of both of these measures, as we feel investor success is created by instituting a globally diversified portfolio, with an ability to help understand and control volatility.
