I do hold some fixed income as well, striving to have at least a 25% allocation there. It is nice to see the fixed income allocation question from one perspective. Another perspective to look at is by analyzing fixed income allocation through the portfolio longevity and annual distributions from the portfolio lense. Some researchers have found that it doesn't really matter if your fixed income allocation is 25% or 50% - your portfolio longevity is almost the same with both. Best Regards, Dividend Growth Investor Nice article. I do hold some fixed income as well, striving to have at least a 25% allocation there.
