Current Asset Allocation

So I did some calculations to find out my overall asset allocation. Here are the results:


So, overall I am close to 70% Stocks and 30% Bonds (including others, which are mostly bond-like instruments). Of my total portfolio, 36% is US Stocks, 21% is International Developed World Stocks and 12.5% is Emerging Markets Stocks.

Prima facie, it feels like I am overexposed to the US market at the cost of my exposure to Emerging Markets. I am going to look to reduce my US Market allocation and increase allocation to Emerging Markets as opportunities present themselves.

Today's art is a little different. This is the famous Bean in Chicago's downtown lakefront by Anish Kapoor. The official name is Cloud Gate - and it is one of most accessible, interactive and popular work of art that I have ever seen.
