277 | How to Rebalance Your Investment Portfolio

Ten burpees a day could change your life—not because burpees are magic, but because you'd be someone who does hard things daily. Brad and Jonathan expand this idea from fitness into your investment portfolio, exploring why your strategy needs regular reassessment just like your workout routine. Key Topics Investor Policy Statement Your investment strategy isn't set-it-and-forget-it. Brad and Jonathan walk through why you need a living document that outlines your strategy, risk tolerance, and goals—and how to adjust it when markets shift. [00:14:30] What is an investor policy statement? - A document that outlines your investment strategy, risk tolerance, and goals. Small Actions, Big Results Committing to 10 burpees daily sounds trivial, but it builds the same proactive discipline that separates intentional investors from passive ones. [00:04:29] "What would change if you committed to doing 10 burpees every day?" Equal Weighting vs. Cap Weighting Should your portfolio mirror the market's concentration in mega-cap stocks, or spread risk evenly across holdings? The hosts examine equal-weighted strategies as a diversification tool in volatile markets. [00:15:07] Equal weighting gives each asset the same portfolio weight, while cap weighting allocates more to larger companies based on market capitalization. Financial Conversations with Your Partner Misaligned assumptions about retirement, risk, or spending can derail even the best plan. Have the awkward conversation now. [00:17:57] Action Item: Discuss your financial strategy openly with your partner for better alignment on future goals.
