Abstract
Part of undertaking a wise investment decision process is setting realistic expectations. Choosing a benchmark against which to assess your investment portfolio’s annual success can be most helpful. It will help you remain unflustered during times when there is volatility in the market and you wish to assess your portfolio performance. One should always seek to find the “best of breed” when seeking an investment. Setting a benchmark for your investments should remain a fundamental part of your decision making process.
