401K and Retirement Accounts 2011 Performance Summary

We did some minor reallocations on 2/3/2011 – as the market already rallied 4% in the last month, our allocations shifted as well and so we did a few exchanges to get the allocation back to 37-34-29 split among domestic, international, and bond funds respectively. Following are the details of the exchange transactions:
  1. Moved the 1.65% in miscellaneous accounts that include our previous company stock and small amounts in certain Fidelity stock funds to Pimco Total Return Fund (PTTRX).
  2. Moved about 7% from the ABF Small Cap Value Fund (AVFIX) and about 15% from Artisan Mid-cap Value Fund (ARTMX) to Pimco Total Return Fund (PTTRX). Both those funds had outstanding returns of 26% and 31% respectively and they continued to rally at the beginning of the year. Valuations on the stocks in the funds have also gone up!
  3. Moved about 15% from the Fidelity Low Priced Stock Fund (FLPSX) to Fidelity Diversified International Fund (FDIVX). Large Cap International Funds focused on developed markets underperformed last year while their domestic equivalents had a comparatively better show. The divergence is not expected to last.
