RE: A T. Rowe Price flyer I received some time ago showed that one got the maximum returns with the least risk by having a 30% allocation to international. To me that implies that you could have enjoyed 30+% return YTD 1997 had you had that 10% excess invested in the VANGUARD Index 500, Extended Market, or Small Cap fund instead of your chosen international funds which averaged approximately 10% return. My short answer to that is : Sticking to my asset allocation is more important than picking the "right" one. Dipy.
