Praise for Reducing the Risk of Black Swans
"For an MIT-trained engineer who loves data candy, Larry Swedroe and Kevin Grogan's latest work is a feast. But you don't have to be a data geek to appreciate their clear presentation of the role new alternative investments can play in a well-diversified portfolio."
— John Montgomery, Founder, Chairman, and Chief Investment Officer, Bridgeway Capital Management
"Due to today's high stock valuations, real U.S. stock returns over the next 10 years are widely expected to be well below historical averages. Swedroe and Grogan provide carefully researched suggestions that are expected to enhance your portfolio's returns while lowering its overall stock market exposure. I, for one, am considering how I should implement some of their suggestions into my portfolio."
