Editor's Note
Editor's Note
A look at what's in the June 2012 AAII Journal.

Features
The Alternative Portfolio: Diversifying Away From a Traditional Allocation
This portfolio has different return characteristics than a portfolio of large-cap stocks and long-term Treasuries, but was capable of beating inflation.

Portfolio Strategies
How to Achieve the Right Asset Allocation
Investors should emphasize making the correct asset allocation and diversification decisions, taking into account personal financial and family factors.

Portfolio Strategies
Using Asset Allocation for Protection and Growth
Asset allocation involves both protecting assets and preserving purchasing power. Both can be accomplished through a balance of growth and defense.

Bonds
Bond Strategies for Those Fearful of Inflation
Stronger inflation is the upside case for investors using bond ladders and holding their bonds to maturity, because of higher interest rates to reinvest into.

Portfolio Strategies
A Pseudo-Life Annuity: Guaranteed Annual Income for 35 Years
Investors can virtually guarantee a lifetime stream of income for their retirement years by creating a ladder of zero-coupon Treasury bonds.

Financial Planning
Dishonesty, Choices and Investing
The financial industry’s bad incentive structure leads to higher costs, but investors can counteract dishonesty simply by asking direct questions.
