Tax-Smart Investing:1 Keeping More of What You Earn
1 Strategic Advisers LLC applies tax-sensitive investment management techniques on a limited basis, at its discretion, primarily with respect to determining when assets in a client’s account should be bought and sold. As a discretionary investment management service, any assets contributed to an investor’s account that the portfolio does not elect to retain may be sold at any time after contribution. An investor may incur a gain or loss when assets are sold.
2 Seek to avoid realized short term gains in favor of long term gains as appropriate.3 Seek to manage exposure to mutual fund distributions.Tax-smart investing may not provide as high a return before consideration of federal income tax consequences as other funds. Tax-sensitive investing an result in realized capital gains.

Separately Managed AccountsWhat are they and what are the potential benefits?
What is an SMA?• Portfolio of individual security investments
managed by professional asset managers• Generally focused on:
– Single asset class (e.g., U.S. large cap stocks)– Investment objective (e.g., dividend income)
• Designed for investors with a preference for non-pooled vehicles
What are the potential benefits of an SMA?• Direct ownership of individual securities;
investors have their own tax lots • Transparency of positions and activity• Potential for tax management• More concentrated in higher conviction names• Ability to customize portfolio• Fund with existing securities

Change in the Pace of Economic GrowthU.S. and China are key focus
Note: The diagram above is a hypothetical illustration of the business cycle. There is not always a chronological, linear progression among the phases of the business cycle, and there have been cycles when the economy has skipped a phase or retraced an earlier one. * A growth recession is a significant decline in activity relative to a country’s long-term economic potential. We use the “growth cycle” definition for most developing economies, such as China, because they tend to exhibit strong trend performance driven by rapid factor accumulation and increases in productivity, and the deviation from the trend tends to matter most for asset returns. We use the classic definition of recession, involving an outright contraction in economic activity, for developed economies. Source: Fidelity Investments (AART), as of 12/31/19.

Stocks after taxes assumes that the stocks purchased were held for five years, then sold, and the capital gains realized. The net proceeds from the sale were reinvested. Dividends were taxed when earned and reinvested. From 1926 to 2018, the average return on stocks after taxes was 8.0%, compared with 10.0% before taxes. Bonds were turned over 28 times within the 93-year period. Capital gains were realized at the time of sale and reinvested. Bonds averaged a 3.4% return after taxes, compared with 5.5% before taxes. After taxes, on average, bonds barely outpaced the inflation rate. Government bonds and Treasury bills are guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government as to the timely payment of principal and interest, while stocks are not guaranteed and have been more volatile than the other asset classes.Federal income tax is calculated using the historical marginal and capital gains tax rates for a single taxpayer earning $120,000 in 2015 dollars every year. This annual income is adjusted using the Consumer Price Index in order to obtain the corresponding income level for each year. Income is taxed at the appropriate federal income tax rate as it occurs. When realized, capital gains are calculated assuming the appropriate capital gains rates. The holding period for capital gains tax calculation is assumed to be five years for stocks, while government bonds are held until replaced in the index. No state income taxes are included. Stocks are represented by the Ibbotson Large Company Stock Index. Government bonds are represented by the 20-year U.S. government bond. An investment cannot be made directly in an index. The data assumes reinvestment of income and does not account for transaction costs.

The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) reports U.S. PMIs. Market compiles non-U.S. PMIs.Information provided herein is for educational purposes only and should not be construed or relied upon by you as advice or guidance as to the appropriateness of any investment decision.Generally, among asset classes stocks are more volatile than bonds or short-term instruments and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. Although the bond market is also volatile, lower-quality debt securities including leveraged loans generally offer higher yields compared to investment grade securities, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes. Foreign markets can be more volatile than U.S. markets due to increased risks of adverse issuer, political, market or economic developments, all of which are magnified in emerging markets.Past performance does not guarantee future results.

In general, the typical business cycle demonstrates the following: During the typical early-cycle phase, the economy bottoms and picks up steam until it exits recession, then begins the recovery as activity accelerates. Inflationary pressures are typically low, monetary policy is accommodative, and the yield curve is steep. Economically sensitive asset classes such as stocks tend to experience their best performance during the cycle. During the typical mid-cycle phase, the economy exits recovery and enters into expansion, characterized by broader and more self-sustaining economic momentum but a more moderate pace of growth. Inflationary pressures typically begin to rise, monetary policy becomes tighter, and the yield curve experiences some flattening. Economically sensitive asset classes tend to continue benefitting from a growing economy, but their relative advantage narrows. During the typical late-cycle phase, the economic expansion matures, inflationary pressures continue to rise, and the yield curve may eventually become flat or inverted. Eventually, the economy contracts and enters recession, with monetary policy shifting from tightening to easing. Less economically sensitive asset categories tend to hold up better, particularly right before and upon entering recession. Please note there is no uniformity of time among phases, nor is there always a chronological progression in this order. For example, business cycles have varied between two and 10 years in the U.S., and there have been examples when the economy has skipped a phase or retraced an earlier one.The Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation is offered by the CFA Institute.
