Print60/40 Portfolio’s Sharpe Ratio Performance

Since the Financial Crisis, the Sharpe ratio for the same portfolio has been nearly three times higher than the historical average, at 1.29. Investors need to decide whether it’s likely to maintain its elevated level for the next decade, or will it revert back towards the long term average.
