401K & Retirement Accounts 2010 Reallocations

We did some minor allocation shifts for 2010. The idea was to shift between funds so as to reach a 35-35-30 split among domestic, international, and bond funds respectively, compared to our existing of 37-34-29 split among those asset classes.

To reach our target allocation, we moved slightly less than one-percent of our overall portfolio value from Fidelity Small Cap Stock Fund (FSLCX) to the PIMCO Total Return Fund (PTTRX). The Fidelity fund had an incredible year returning 71% but it would be hard to replicate. We also moved about half-a-percent of our portfolio value each from the two sector specific fidelity funds we own – Fidelity Select Healthcare (FSPHX) & Fidelity Select Technology Fund (FSPTX). The Fidelity Select Technology Fund (FSPTX) was the best-performing fund in our portfolio last year with a return of over 96%. The Fidelity Select Healthcare Fund (FSPHX) also performed well returning around 35%. Going forward, we do not see significant out-performance by these two sectors. The funds were moved to Vanguard Pacific ETF (VPL). The pacific stock index returned less than 25% last year, but we expect relative outperformance in this area of the market in the coming year.
