How to read this: a of 10.4% means a typical year swung roughly that far around its average. The of -12.3% (Dec 2025 → Mar 2026) is the worst peak-to-trough slide in the window — replayed on today's $159,200.00 invested, about a $19,582.00 paper fall before the recovery. A of 0.72 means the portfolio earned roughly that much return above cash for each unit of swing — higher is more pay for the bumps. The usual scale: below 0, the swings didn't even beat cash; 0 to 0.5 is thin pay; 0.5 to 1.0 is a decent trade; above 1.0 is excellent and rarely lasts. At 0.72 this mix sits inside the decent band. One holding dominates: Carter Broad Market Index (CARTERX) is 30.8% of the dollars, but its is 33.5% of the total, so the portfolio's ride is mostly that fund's ride. The red line is the path: each point is how far below the previous peak the portfolio sat that month.

What this shows: a replays the last five years at fixed weights. $100,000 in the current mix would have ended at $138,400.00; in the target mix, $141,200.00 — the target mix finished $2,800.00 ahead. In this window the target did not even calm the ride: of 10.9% against 10.4%, and a of -14.0% against -12.3%. Neither figure is a forecast: it is the same five years run through two different mixes.
