// SUMMARY:

The Ultimate Buy and Hold Portfolio is a lazy portfolio designed by Paul Merriman for the "ultimate" buy-and-hold investing strategy.

Merriman looked historically at the very specific market segments that had the greatest and most consistent historical outperformance across stocks of all cap sizes globally. Specifically, he maintains that the term “ultimate” must describe a portfolio that has consistently outperformed the S&P 500 with no additional risk.

Consistent with investing wisdom of a 60/40 portfolio being the “center of gravity” between risk and return, the Ultimate Buy and Hold Portfolio allocates 60% to stocks and 40% to bonds. However, Merriman acknowledges that this asset allocation may not be appropriate for everyone, and suggests that investors should choose their own allocation based on their own personal risk tolerance.

The Paul Merriman Ultimate Buy and Hold Portfolio asset allocation is as follows:
6% U.S. Total Stock Market
6% U.S. Large Cap Value
6% U.S. Small Cap Stocks
6% U.S. Small Cap Value
6% U.S. REITs
6% International Developed Markets Stocks
6% International Value
6% International Small Cap Stocks
6% International Small Cap Value
6% Emerging Markets Stocks
12% Short-Term Treasury Bonds
20% Intermediate-Term Treasury Bonds
8% TIPS

Merriman’s best-in-class ETF recommendations rely heavily on fund offerings from Avantis, a relatively new ETF provider founded by former Dimensional employees. The important takeaway is that we would expect Avantis funds to provide reliable factor targeting and indeed they have in their short lifespan so far. We can construct the Ultimate Buy and Hold Portfolio like this:

AVUS – 6%
RPV – 6%
IJR – 6%
AVUV – 6%
VNQ – 6%
AVDE – 6%
DFIV – 6%
FNDC – 6%
AVDV – 6%
AVEM – 6%
VGSH – 12%
SPTI – 20%
VTIP – 8%
