ALTY holds 60.3% of its net assets in stocks, counted through the funds it holds, so it sits in the moderate band, more than 50% and up to 70% stocks. ETFIQ Strategic 60 is the benchmark for that band. What does ETFIQ Strategic 60 hold? 60% VT and 40% US bonds (BND and AGG in equal parts), rebalanced on the last trading day of each month. It is a published rule, not a fund, and ETFIQ takes no payment from any fund company. Why are the benchmark\u2019s returns hypothetical? Its rule was frozen on a stated date. Returns before it apply today\u2019s rule and funds to earlier prices; the fund\u2019s own returns are its market price with distributions reinvested. The price source does not carry funds that closed before 2016, so nothing here is free of survivorship bias. Total returns are market price with distributions reinvested, net of each fund\u2019s own fees, with nothing else deducted. The price source does not carry funds that closed before 2016, so nothing here is free of survivorship bias.
