Suppose you wish to invest a certain amount of money in stocks, or stock funds, or both.  After you’ve selected the stocks or funds, the immediate question is how much should you invest in each security.  Should it be equal amount?  Or is there a way to allocate optimally?  How does your portfolio fare against a benchmark?  What if you want to combine your equity portfolio with CDs, or Money Market Accounts, or Bonds?  How do you protect your portfolio value?  And over time, how do you know whether your portfolio allocation is still optimal?  These are questions that Portfolio Designer can help answer.  Portfolio Designer helps you:

• allocate new investments,
